Everybody knows Sharks weigh more than Penguins.

As the Pittsburgh Penguins and San Jose Sharks get set to do battle in this year's Stanley Cup Final - with the Sharks in pursuit of their first ever Cup and the Penguins in search of their first since 2009 - one thing is evident, the Sharks are bigger, heavier, and more experienced than their counterparts.

The Penguins however, have the luxury of having been to the Stanley Cup Finals twice since 2008, while the Sharks enter the final round of the postseason for their first time in franchise history.

With that said, David and Goliath will get their first look at one another when Game 1 goes down Monday night in Pittsburgh.
