  1. Hey, everyone!
    Although we tried to be super diligent, we could have missed a detail or two at some point, sorry in advance.
    We produced/wrote every song in this video. We're considering posting the songs from this video, along with the previous soundtrack from part 1, on streaming services. Let us know if you would be interested in listening to it as background music for studying/getting work done!

    If you liked the video, give us suggestions for more content!
    Thank you so much for watching guys!

  2. We really need the Cup in San Jose. We've had the Patty and Jumbo era, the Pavs and Couch era, now's the Smith and Celebrini era. And you can tell the excitement by seeing some of the former Sharks coming back to San Jose. Even though they are not players anymore, Patty and Jumbo deserves the Cup seeing how they made impact to the franchise.

  3. I resisted watching this… Didn't wanna relive the pain. I've been a sharks fan since I was 5 and my parents drove me to kindergarten passing the SAP center construction site.

    I'm 38…

    Love my team, would never deny them.. but damn… đŸ€ž They win one in my 40's

    I'm not a very outwardly emotional man, but I'll admit that when the sharks won the draft lottery.. I got teary eyed. And it was on my 38th birthday.

    I'm ready, we're ready for the "climb up".

  4. Bittersweet watch for me. I lost so much money, time, and energy obsessing over this team. They ruined my childhood, but taught me so many life lessons and brought me closer to my family. Was cool to take a trip down memory lane. Thanks for this.

  5. Hey guys, unfortunately, Sportsnet thinks that the 2011 clip of Vancouver beating San Jose in double overtime is from a 2021 game between Winnipeg and Edmonton, they copyrighted the entire video because of that clip so we had to trim it out.

    If you're interested in watching or learning about the 2011 run, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMFVCnbRaV4 <– that's a link to the goal that Bieksa scored.

    Sorry it had to be trimmed out. Hope it doesn't ruin the video for you guys!

  6. This one hits close to home. I’ve grew up in San Jose born here. Played hockey throughout grade school and have been a diehard shark fan as long as I can remember. I was there for most of these moments.

  7. As a lifelong fan who’s spent time working at the sharks games, I really appreciate this video giving me some more hope for seasons to come. You contextualized the rebuild in a way no one else has for me. Great video. Can’t wait for Jumbo jersey retirement night

  8. As a Pens fan, I would’ve rooted for the Sharks if they played anyone else in the 2016 Cup but I had no choice but the Sharks should’ve had at least 1 cup in the Thornton/Marleau/Pavelski era. 2010 was their best chance other than 2016 but the Blackhawks were just too much

  9. I was born in 91 in Santa Cruz. I had the Sharks bomber jacket as a toddler with the crunch logo on the back. The Sharks are the only pro team in any sport I actively root for, and these last five years have been hard. I watched the 2016 finals while on deployment on the Truman at like 3am on armed forces network, and that game six was hard to watch for me, but I hoped they could bounce back. Losing Pavs was like losing the heart. Cooch is a great captain, don’t get me wrong, but losing a guy who had spent his entire career there, the Sharks who normally kept players because of the fun environment, suddenly wasn’t. Players started leaving left and right after Pavs, and not just the stars. Goodie, Sorensen, Melker Karlsson, Donskoi, Dilly etc. The depth guys that really filled the team out

  10. Great video. Makes me fall back in love with this team I grew up watching. I'll never forget going to game 1 of the 2019 WCF, hopefully we'll get to see that type of hockey in the bay again soon.

  11. I'm a Pens fan, but San Jose has always been that Western Conference team, that I wanted to see do good. Have family from right outside of San Jose , the Sharks is an awesome name and logo , and Marleau was probably my favorite non-Penguin ( until he became one ) . That 2016 final was awesome as a Pens fan, but I still felt a little bad for y'all. All the talent and some fantastic regular seasons , but 0 cups , that's gotta sting. Y'all will be back .

  12. The Thornton, marleau, couture, pavelski, burns sharks team should’ve won the cup, I find it crazy they never did. Were such a great team for so long.
    Btw As a Canucks fan I forgot we got swept by the sharks in 12/13 thats how miserable it’s been for a Canucks fan since that season lmao 😅haha
    ( but I remember 3011)
    Finally we had some playoffs and a good regular season this year, hopefully more to come and we face the sharks again in the playoffs soon and make a new rivalry

  13. I watched this entire playoff run while stationed in Guam. I was at a local dive bar grabbing lunch and game 6 was on TV (thanks to the time difference). Had a buddy on the boat that was a massive Sharks fan and was going to watch the replay of the game after work
 I didn’t have the heart to ruin it for him.
