DENVER — Tell me, if the Carolina Hurricanes are the Bunch of Jerks, what does that make the most unique dressing room in the NHL?



“I don’t know, we’ve got more clowns than jerks I think,’’ mused San Jose Sharks winger Michael Haley on Wednesday.



“We like to have fun,” Haley added. “But I don’t know if we can just have one tag. There’s a lot of different personalities in there.’’



That much seems obvious.



The Sharks from the outside seem like a petri dish of souls, one big sociological experiment which appears to have produced one of the most close-knit dressing rooms in the NHL.



“We have so many different personalities,” Evander Kane said. “We have quiet guys, we have loud guys, we got old guys, young guys; I think the beauty of our team is that it doesn’t really matter your makeup, everybody is included. It makes it for a fun environment.
