Barry Dadon shocked San Jose Sharks finally make Stanley Cup

I can't believe it. My brother-in-law's San Jose Sharks finally made the Stanley Cup.

As a Los Angeles Kings fan, I, Barry Dadon, never thought I'd live to see the day. But the team that has choked in the NHL's postseason tournament so many times, as the favorite so many times, has finally made it to the big stage.

For years people, including my brother-in-law, have thought the Sharks had the depth, talent and skill to make it to the Cup. Each year they failed. Over and over again. The Sharks had 10 chances to make it to the Cup, but squandered all of them. Last year they didn't even make it to the playoffs.

Meanwhile, over the course of that time, my Kings have won two Stanley Cups. We've held it over the heads of Sharks fans. Now, it seems as though we'll only have a one-up advantage on them.

These San Jose Sharks look different this year. Hungrier, faster and even more talented than before. They are four wins away from putting their names on Lord Stanley's Cup.

And it's hard to pick against them. They have the high-scoring Joe Pavelski and the big bearded Joe Thornton and Brent Burns, who have both taken Playoff Beards to new heights.

I mean, come on: Those two guys look like they could be actors on Game of Thrones by now. I heard at Media Day, Burns said he's been growing his beard for 18 months, which certainly is a long time.

But that's nothing compared to the 25-year wait San Jose Sharks fans have endured to see their team play for the Cup.

I still can't believe they finally made it.
