Former Sharks on opponent: Corey Schwab, prospect goaltending coach

The Sharks came together in Vlasic’s absence, to contain the Rangers (only former Shark Dan Boyle managed to get a puck past Jones — on the PP). And chased Lundqvist out of the net.  Final score: 4-1 Sharks.  Marleau skated in his 1,400th game — the youngest player to ever do so; the 9th to do so with a single franchise, the 30th in NHL history.  And with more points, Thornton climbs the all-time scoring list.  Wingels was inserted into the lineup for Nieto (out 3-4 weeks with a broken knuckle).  DeMelo was recalled and in as well.  Donskoi made an AWESOME no look pass to Ward who started the scoring against the Rangers.

After winning the game over the Sharks Thursday on a late goal from Doan, the Coyotes were shut out by the Lightning behind Domingue.  Smith starting in nets for Arizona on Sunday.

Sunday, the lineup doesn’t change for the Sharks, except that Reimer will be in nets.
