Sharks vs. Jets: Lines, gamethread and where to watch

After everything that has happened today you’d be forgiven if you’d forgotten the Sharks actually have a game tonight. San Jose finishes up its back-to-back against the Winnipeg Jets at 5 p.m. PT at the MTS Center before heading back to the Bay Area tonight.

With no morning skate today we have no update on Joonas Donskoi, nor do we have confirmation that backup Aaron Dell will get the start tonight. Here are my projected lines from no reputable source. My hunch is that Dell will start and Donskoi will miss tonight’s game, which will get Ryan Carpenter and Barclay Goodrow into the game. Friend of the Blog Kevin Kurz supplied the Jets lines, which includes rookie sensation Patrik Laine’s return to action.

Melker Karlsson – Joe Thornton – Joe Pavelski

Patrick Marleau – Logan Couture – Mikkel Boedker
