Yeah a definite chance if the Sharks play the way they can. While Nashville played their hearts out and relied on Rinne and Weber, the Blues are more formidable with Elliott having the best save % in the regular season and that monster know as Backes. With Berglund, Steen and Pietranagelo the Sharks will have their hands full.
The consensus on NHL.com overwhelmingly has the Blues to win. At the start of the playoffs the teams I think would be the toughest for the Sharks were the Kings, Blues and Hawks. Despite the quick close of the Kings every one of those games was very close and came down to the last minute, whereas in the Predator series a couple games the Sharks were flat and the Preds were not there for game 7.
