The Sharks are coming off a loss to Carolina Saturday, where they ended it a one goal game. On Friday, the Flames lost to Pittsburgh 4-0.
On Sunday, the Sharks put Vlasic on the IR and recalled Demelo.
So, the question for Monday’s game is: will the Sharks come together and play their hearts out, or they be beat down by the Flames who have come out on top so far this season against the Sharks?
They’ll have to work a little harder as the Flames’ dad are on this trip with them.
Hiller the probable starter for the Flames. Glencross returning to the lineup.
Sharks have one win in four games against the Flames thus far this season.
But a late breaking story may overshadow the game: the Sharks acquire Evgeni Nabokov from Tampa Bay (for future considerations). (It’s assumed he’ll announce his retirement on Wednesday)
Niemi for the Sharks as starter. Wingels back in the lineup; Tarasov to IR.
