game score,and commentary...

Vancouver 4,Sharks 2... by looking at total shots,there would be a feeling that Vancouver had lost game four,getting out-shot 35-13,but the Canucks converted on three consecutive two-man advantages,in second period(on only four shots),and the Sharks could not convert on five consecutive power plays,in first period,and early in second period,then they suffered,"the penalty death march",to oblivion,with four penalties,in only 2:46,of time... going into third period,down 3-0,they were basically stopped by Roberto Luongo,until they put the nail into the Sharks' coffin,when Henrik Sedin passed puck through Antti Niemi's legs,to Alexandre Burrows,on a two on one rush,for a tap-in goal,to make it,4-0,Canucks... the Sharks did pressure the Canucks in their defensive zone,and score two garbage goals,but the Sharks could not convert on the power play,when it most counted... that was the difference in game... Henrik Sedin had four assists,and Sami Salo,had two goals,along with Ryan Kesler,who opened scoring,for the Canucks,in second period,on first,of three consecutive two-man advantages... i believe that they scored on three consecutive shots,all on those two-man advantages,and the arena,and the Sharks were stunned to shock,and you could hear a pin drop... the Sharks pressured too much late to come back,from a 4-0 deficit,in third period,the way that the Canucks,and Luongo were playing this game... Vancouver was 3-5,on power play,while San Jose was 0-5,on power play... Ryan Clowe got a roughing call,on the buzzer,for punching a Canucks' player,who went down on his face... i believe the player he hit was Ryan Kesler,but not sure... Sharks gave up three goals,or more,in a period(this time,on only four shots),for third straight game,and they have given up multiple goals,in a period,in every game of this series... Sharks,including Niemi,have played very poorly in this series,unlike against the Red Wings,and Vancouver has taken advantage,of every mistake,and penalty,that the Sharks have committed,at the most critical times,of the games played,so far... the Sharks' captain,Joe Thornton went out,and did not return,after a Raffi Torres hit to his shoulder,midway into the third period,and they call that,"the dreaded upper body injury",to Thornton... he got hit on the elbow,as he lifted his arm,and it looked like he jammed his shoulder,but they will not tell you anything about that... Sharks are down three games,to one,and going back to Vancouver,for game five,so odds are not good,for a comeback,because Sharks would have to win twice,in Vancouver,to win series,and the coaches will drill that into the players,to not allow San Jose,back into series,and just end it,in five games,and Vancouver is very tough place to win a game(great fans,and home cooking)... the fans will be pumped up,and it will be crazy,for the game that could put Vancouver,into the Stanley Cup Finals,for the third time,in their team history(losing to New York Islanders,in one of their four straight Stanley Cup winning run,in the 1980's,and a memorable seven game series,against the New York Rangers,in 1994)... odd fact,i was in New York,and Connecticut,during the "WE WILL WIN" series,for the Rangers,against the New Jersey Devils,in which Mark Messier stated to the New York papers,that the Rangers would win game six,saying just that,and then going out,and winning game,and scoring a hat trick,with an empty net goal,himself... i left the day,of game six,of that series,and actually saw the papers,myself...
