REINFORCEMENTS: Can the San Jose Sharks Make a PUSH With Igor Chernyshov and Key Players Back?

San Jose Sharks get a surge of reinforcements at a season-defining moment. With Igor Chernyshov likely returning from concussion protocol to join Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith on the top line, could this trio spark a late playoff push for San Jose? The Sharks also see Tyler Toffoli, Ty Dellandrea, and Vincent Desharnais back on the ice, shifting new practice lines and defensive pairings, while Sam Dickinson’s potential as a healthy scratch poses big decisions for the blue line.

JD Young breaks down the Sharks’ lineup changes, explores strategic impacts for the upcoming clash with the Nashville Predators, and debates whether Yaroslav Askarov or Alex Nedeljkovic should get the start in net against St. Louis. From Barclay Goodrow’s role on the fourth line to key injuries and playmaking concerns, all eyes are on the “last stand” game that could define San Jose’s playoff hopes.

  1. So Ryan Reeves just played his last game as a shark? Last game as a NHLer. And he goes out on a fight. At least Ryan Reeves went out doing Ryan Reeves things.

  2. Neither Dickinson nor Mukhamadullin should ever be healthy scratches.

    I'd still love to see:

    Graf – Celebrini – Chernyshov
    Eklund – Misa – Smith
    Sherwood – Wennberg – Regenda or Toffoli

  3. A bad Dickinson is better than a good Leddy. At what point does Warso realize that Klingberg’s “offense” is not worth his horrible defense.

  4. 😊😊yes we can with defense minded first game by game we will make it even in the top 5 or 6 seats but defense comes first i appreciate you and let the young guys know defence first
