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

The Sharks look to snap a two-game skid as they host the Minnesota Wild at 7:30 p.m. San Jose waived Matt Nieto yesterday and saw him claimed by the Colorado Avalanche today. With David Schlemko and Marc-Edouard Vlasic still out of the lineup, the Sharks called up Tim Heed only to make him a healthy scratch along with Mikkel Boedker this evening.
