After trading goals with Bruins, Sharks pulled ahead, with five different scorers and held on to win in Boston, with four of the five goals scored against the B’s top defensive D/F: Bergeron, Chara.  Marleau notched his 999th point.

On to Philadelphia.  On Tuesday night, they hosted the Kings, losing in shootout. They’ve been playing through some injuries. Streit out 6 weeks after pubic plate detachment surgery (as if I knew what that meant; tl; dr — call it a hip injury). Umberger still out. Neuvirth is ready to return to the lineup. Rookie Gostisbehere,  taking Streit’s roster spot, seems to have provided spark to lineup.

Sharks had an optional practice at Penn State Wednesday (in part because arena had basketball game on Wednesday). Marleau would like to get his 1000th point to get the milestone behind him, and keep earning points.

Update: Mason starting for Philadelphia. Jones starting; same lineup.
