Sharks were 17-0 when leading 2-0, until Thursday. Oilers’ Maroon indicated that the Sharks wilt with sustained forecheck (known thing), and the Sharks did not answer the challenge. Definitely something the Sharks need to change or they won’t be long in the playoffs.
Recent signees Jon Martin and Michael Brodinski are now with the Barracuda (and scheduled to make their pro debuts Saturday night).
Dallas limps into San Jose to play their third/last game of a road trip: Russel is questionable; Seguin and Demers are out. The team lost 1-4 to the Coyotes Thursday night, but are 6-2-2 in their last ten. Stars are pushing to win the Central Division.
Donskoi was injured in Thursday’s game and is questionable to play. Vlasic, Nieto and Tennyson out. Jones is the scheduled starter.
And another interesting wrinkle:
.@washcaps will clinch Presidents' Trophy if they get at least 1pt vs Blues OR if DAL loses to SJ in any fashion or defeat SJ in a shootout.

And concern (for the Stars) with a slumping Niemi.
