No. 1 San Jose Sharks vs. No. 8 Anaheim Ducks Season series: The Sharks won four of six games.

The Sharks have come away empty-handed in their pursuit of a 24-year-old Swedish goalie being touted as the best goaltender not in the NHL.

It has been more than two months since the Sharks concluded their brief, confounding postseason face flop.

Goalie Brian Boucher leaves one pressure cooker for another I had to circle back today to a transaction that occurred in the madness of July 1: Brian Boucher signing a two-year, $1.85 million deal with the Philadelphia Flyers .

The Philadelphia Flyers brought a familiar face back into the fold Wednesday, as they signed goaltender Brian Boucher to a two-year deal.

The hockey draft, as we all know, is not as exciting as other drafts. Or as exciting as draft beer, for that matter.

LONG LOST TWIN: LaTroy Hawkins didn't exactly endear himself to Giants fans during his mediocre stint here in 2005, so it was a kick to read the reliever, now with the Astros, has fans in Minnesota, where he spent the first nine years of his career.

Like most who spend time in Las Vegas, Todd McLellan came away empty-handed Thursday night.

A much-in-demand Swedish goalie trying to decide where to begin his NHL career toured San Jose and the Sharks organization Tuesday.

Todd McLellan has two teams to worry about with the Stanley Cup tournament starting in two weeks.

Something tells me the Sharks will make a significant trade before next month's National Hockey League draft.

Prior to the 2009 Stanley Cup Playoffs, Patrick Marleau was known as a playoff performer.

One of the givens of playoff success is that it hinges upon having a proven and thus pricey commodity between the pipes.

BAY DOUBLEHEADERS: On two of the next three Wednesdays, fans can watch a game at one ballpark in the afternoon and then catch another across the bay at night.

Perhaps the Sharks did not look at that Presidents' Trophy closely enough. Did they check the fine print? Maybe the trophy was named in honor of William Henry Harrison - the U.S. president who died of pneumonia on just his 32nd day in office.

The San Jose Sharks choke. It's a sentiment that\'s hard to debate, as the Anaheim Ducks used a brilliant series from Jonas Hiller to stun the West's No.

The Sharks were picking up the pieces of shattered playoff dreams as they cleaned out their lockers Wednesday, and it was clear a franchise that generally tries to keep its emotions under control has been having a tough time of it this week.

For all their young talent and veteran experience, the Anaheim Ducks didn't really get it together until they were in danger of missing the NHL playoffs late in the regular season.
