Overview
- San Jose placed Alex Nedeljkovic on non-roster status after he left the road trip to address a personal matter that surfaced before Tuesday’s game in Minnesota.
- Jakub Skarek was recalled from the AHL Barracuda on an emergency basis and is expected to back up Yaroslav Askarov tonight in Calgary.
- Warsofsky signaled a short timeline for Nedeljkovic’s return, making a Skarek start unlikely without a scheduling need.
- Skarek, 26, has two NHL appearances and is 4-2-0 with a .875 save percentage and 3.63 GAA this season in the AHL, including a 27-save shutout on Tuesday.
- The Sharks enter Calgary on a four-game winning streak and seven-game point streak with the trip concluding Saturday in Seattle.
