One season after missing the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the San Jose Sharks have gotten some instant gratification, eliminating the Los Angeles Kings in five games in their best-of-7 Western Conference First Round series and advancing to the second round.

The Sharks, who defeated the Kings 6-3 in Game 5 at Staples Center on Friday, face the winner of the first-round series between the Anaheim Ducks and Nashville Predators, which is tied 2-2.

The Los Angeles Kings seemed destined to build a dynasty after winning the Stanley Cup in 2012 and 2014 and reaching the Western Conference Final the year in between. But since hoisting the Cup, the Kings have won one Stanley Cup Playoff game and have yet to follow up that illustrious three-year run.

The San Jose Sharks ended the Kings’ 2016 postseason bid Friday in Los Angeles with a Game 5 victory, eliminating them 4-1 in the best-of-7 Western Conference First Round series.
