Sharks' Marc-Edouard Vlasic: Ruled out for Thursday's game
Vlasic has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Carolina due to an upper-body injury, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
Vlasic had suited up for each of the Sharks' last 10 games, and he was held without a point while recording 20 blocked shots, a hit and a minus-6 rating. Jimmy Schuldt will take his place in the lineup Thursday, while Vlasic's next chance to suit up will be Saturday against the Bruins.

Sharks' Jimmy Schuldt: Back with big club
Schuldt was recalled from AHL San Jose on Wednesday.
Schuldt was sent down Tuesday but returns to the big club a day later. This is likely the Sharks keeping their options open on defense for their next couple of games -- Thursday versus the Hurricanes and Saturday versus the Bruins. He has no points, four shots on net, nine hits and three blocked shots over four NHL appearances.

Sharks' Yaroslav Askarov: Hoping to practice soon
Askarov (lower body) is expected back on at practice with AHL San Jose in the coming week, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports Wednesday.
Askarov won't be ready to rejoin the Sharks until at least the end of March or the start of April -- though the organization may decide to let him finish out the year with the Barracuda instead of bringing him back to the NHL. In his 13 appearances for the Sharks, the 22-year-old backstop went 4-6-2 with a 3.10 GAA and .896 save percentage.

Sharks' Ty Dellandrea: Slumping on offense
Dellandrea's point drought reached 11 games in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Capitals.
Dellandrea has racked up 39 hits, but he's added just nine shots on net, 10 PIM and a minus-4 rating in that span. The 24-year-old forward remains consistently in the lineup for a Sharks team that is currently carrying two spare forwards. His defensive work provides some on-ice value, but the lack offense makes him a non-factor in fantasy. Dellandrea is at just six points with 37 shots on net, 41 PIM, 141 hits and 38 blocked shots over 54 appearances in 2024-25.

Sharks' Macklin Celebrini: Reaches 50-point mark with goal
Celebrini scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Capitals.
Celebrini's third-period tally spoiled Logan Thompson's shutout bid. This was Celebrini's third goal and sixth point over his last six outings. The 18-year-old rookie reached the 50-point mark Saturday (21 goals, 29 helpers), becoming the second rookie to hit that threshold, following the Canadiens' Lane Hutson. Celebrini has added 196 shots on net, 45 blocked shots and a minus-27 rating over 56 appearances.

Sharks' Georgi Romanov: Makes season debut in relief
Romanov turned aside nine of 11 shots after replacing Alexandar Georgiev to begin the second period of Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Capitals.
In his first appearance of the season and just his third in the NHL, Romanov had the honor of giving up Alex Ovechkin's 887th career goal. The 25-year-old netminder is likely with the Sharks only due to a lower-body injury to Yaroslav Askarov, but with Georgiev struggling badly right now, Romanov might see his workload increase over the final weeks.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Gets hook Saturday
Georgiev stopped 14 of 17 shots before being replaced by Georgi Romanov to begin the second period of Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Capitals.
Georgiev got stuck with his fourth loss in his last five starts, a stretch in which he's stumbled to a 4.46 GAA and an .844 save percentage. Top prospect Yaroslav Askarov hasn't suited up for AHL San Jose since Feb. 19 due to a lower-body injury, leaving the Sharks short of options between the pipes, and giving Georgiev some degree of job security despite his struggles.

Sharks' Alexandar Georgiev: Defending crease Saturday
Georgiev will protect the home net against Washington on Saturday, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
Georgiev is coming off a 24-save performance in Thursday's 4-2 win over Chicago. He has a 13-22-1 record with a 3.59 GAA and an .876 save percentage through 40 games between San Jose and Colorado this season. Washington ranks first in the league with 3.61 goals per game in 2024-25.

Sharks' Zack Ostapchuk: Recalled by San Jose
Ostapchuk was called up from AHL San Jose on Friday.

Sharks' Barclay Goodrow: Sticks up for teammate
Goodrow had a fighting major and two hits in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Goodrow's point drought reached 12 games, but he had a fight for the second game in a row. He came to the defense of Macklin Celebrini, dropping the mitts with Jason Dickinson after the Chicago forward's cross-checking penalty in the second period. Goodrow is a good teammate and does a lot of the dirty work for a fairly young team. However, his fourth-line role has left him with just eight points and a minus-31 rating to go with 64 PIM, 62 shots on net, 130 hits and 47 blocked shots over 62 appearances this season in his second stint with the Sharks.

Sharks' Mario Ferraro: Ends point drought with assist
Ferraro logged an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Ferraro snapped a 14-game point drought with the helper. In that span, he still compiled 23 hits and 32 blocked shots -- it's his non-scoring production that tends to be the steadiest part of his game. Ferraro is up to 12 points, 139 hits, 104 blocked shots, 64 shots on net, 45 PIM and a minus-20 rating through 67 appearances this season. He's serving as the Sharks' top shutdown blueliner.

Sharks' Shakir Mukhamadullin: Hands out helper Thursday
Mukhamadullin notched an assist, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and a minus-1 rating in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Mukhamadullin has excelled in March with five helpers over seven games, and he has a plus-1 rating in that span. The 23-year-old toiled in a bottom-four role earlier in the campaign, but he's now alongside a shutdown defenseman in Mario Ferraro on the top pairing, which allows Mukhamadullin to roam a bit on offense. For the season, Mukhamadullin has eight points, 20 shots on net, 32 blocked shots, 18 hits and a plus-3 rating across 23 appearances.

Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Pockets helper in win
Wennberg provided an assist in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Wennberg is continuing to make an impact as a set-up man, earning eight assists over his last eight contests. He delivered a primary helper on the first of Collin Graf's two tallies in Thursday's win. For the season, Wennberg is up to 31 points, 64 shots on net, 58 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating over 62 appearances. He saw some limited minutes at times earlier in the campaign, but he's firmly in the top six following the Sharks' numerous trades leading up to last Friday's deadline.

Sharks' William Eklund: Garners helper in win
Eklund notched an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Eklund had been held off the scoresheet in consecutive games for the first time since the end of January. He got back on the scoresheet with a secondary assist on Will Smith's first-period tally. Eklund is up to 49 points, 115 shots on net, 42 hits, 37 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 62 appearances. That output has him tied with Macklin Celebrini for the team lead in points, though Eklund has seven more games played this year.
