The Worcester Sharks came back from an 0-2 deficit and beat the favored Hartford Wolf Pack in four straight games to advance to the Atlantic Division Finals. It was Worcester's first playoff series victory in team history. The Sharks scored early and often in the last four games, outscoring Hartford 17-6. The series begins on Tuesday night in Providence then takes some strange turns, due to the circus being in town at "The Dunk."
