Sharks to host Fort McMurray family for Game 4
The San Jose Sharks are doing some good off the ice while battling it out for the right to play for the Stanley Cup on the ice.
The club has invited a family from Fort McMurray, Alberta to attend Game 4 of the Western Conference finals.
What drew the Sharks to this particular family is that, although they lost lost their home to the devastating wildfire that recently tore through the community, they made a point to save their Sharks gear.

The Sharks will fly the family to San Jose for Game 4, where they will be treated to a VIP experience at the game Saturday including zamboni rides, high-fiving the team when they come out of the locker room, and new jerseys.
Well done, Sharks.
