No. 7: San Jose Sharks

Previous: No. 10

Record: 30-16-2 (62 points)

The Sha-arks are using a nice five-game win streak to vault back up the Pacific standings and stay in touch with warm Edmonton and Anaheim clubs. The Sharks can thank a comfy stretch of games for that, as their last five contests (and wins) have come against Winnipeg, Los Angeles, Tampa Bay and Colorado two times. Not exactly a murderer’s row, but don’t be fooled: This is still a West title contender.
