There were a lot of question marks heading into the strike-shortened 2013 NHL season. However, the question of the best team in hockey has been answered quite quickly. The San Jose Sharks are 7-0-0 and the only NHL team yet to record any form of a loss. San Jose begins a six-game road stand Feb. 11 but first host the Chicago Blackhawks in one of hockeys top early season match-ups. Whiztix.com examines ticket prices for the showdown with Chicago as well as every other one of the Sharks home games.
