The team is essentially another year older, but without one of their best scorers in Marleau. While this roster is definitely talented enough to make the playoffs, there are too many teams in the West. In their division, Anaheim, Edmonton and Calgary both look very strong, better than the Sharks at least. That leaves the Sharks fighting out the wild card with three teams from the Central. Are the Sharks a better team than the Stars? Blackhawks? Predators? Blues? Wild? Jets? I'd take all except Winnipeg over San Jose.
