Setoguchi and Vesce healed and ready to go against Nashville
Update from WTC, and it looks like Setoguchi and Vesce are penciled into the lineup for Tuesday.
For all you Vesce lovers, it looks like he'll be bumped back down to the fourth line to accomodate Setoguchi on the first. Per WTC, the lines should look something like this...
Heatley - Thornton - Setoguchi
Marleau - Pavelski - Clowe
McGinn - Malhotra - Ortmeyer
Shelley - Nichol - Vesce
On a related note, Mitchell is skating and practicing with the team (on the fourth line today, as Shelley took a maitenance day), and it looks like he's getting close to a return. Don't quote me on that, though.

Anyone else impressed with Ortmeyer so far? I thought he was going to hover in between being a liability and a non-factor, but so far I have been pleasantly surprised. He has provided a nice burst of energy, and every game seems to generate at least one or two decent scoring chances.
Good pickup
Ortmeyer has occasional skating issues (which occasionally allow him to draw phantom trips against opponents when really he just drove his toe into the ice and fell down), and he had some early bad reads on the PK, but he has really hit his stride of late. Great energy, and once he settled in, has resumed his role as a solid PKer. We never gave him much air time in the offseason and preseason, but if we had, I think there would have been considerably less angst among the faithful here.

YES!
It’ll be awesome to see Seto back out and skating again. And we get Vesce back too? Just awesome! Love the scoring depth of this team. Malhotra, Nichol, McGinn, Orts, Vesce…all can score and create scoring chances. It’s something we’ve really lacked from the lower lines in the past.
Looks like I’ll have much to look forward to when I finally get back to a game at the Tank tomorrow!
Sometimes the impossible can become possible if you're AWESOME!
Ah, the ol'

I was holding out hope that Mitchell would be back this game, but I do not mind Seto or Vesce coming back either. Good to hear Mitchell is close, though.

Lol Mitchell. Everyone that got injured after you is coming back before you. What are the odds that Rob Blake is healthy and playing before Mitchell plays his first game of the season?
We just traded who for who?!
Our lines are ridiculous
Period.
Pavelski closing in, Pavelski fires, HE SCOOORES!! 5 games not enough! The Sharks have another date in the Lone Star State!
