The San Jose Sharks (15-40-70) will be looking to write a new script for the rest of their season as they take on the Ottawa Senators (25-32-4).
The trade deadline has come and gone, and now it is time for the Sharks to finish their season with a different view. Everyone in the locker room knows their situation, but now is a chance for them to create their own identity.
Tomas Hertl is gone, leaving a big gap on the ice and in the entire Sharks' organization. Young players like William Eklund, Fabian Zetterlund, and Thomas Bordeleau can now make themselves the new version of the core.
The Senators have only eight road wins this season. Despite yesterday's shock, San Jose could use the support of its fan base today.
Klim Kostin should make his Sharks debut today, wearing a familiar number ten, recently left by Anthony Duclair. Devin Cooley will likely backup Magnus Chrona. Head coach David Quinn said Mackenzie Blackwood will not be activated before today's game.
Here are what the Sharks' line combinations could be:
Zetterlund-Granlund-Bordeleau
Zadina-Eklund-Kunin
Barabanov-Sturm-Kostin
Bailey-Carpenter-Hoffman
Ferraro-Burroughs
Thrun-Rutta
Vlasic-Addison
Chrona
Cooley
Puck drop is at 4 p.m. and can be seen on NBC Sports California or the Sharks Audio Network.
