Ducks at Sharks: Lines, how to watch & open thread

The San Jose Sharks and Anaheim Ducks are both decidedly out of the postseason conversation, so tonight’s third meeting between the two this season has little on the line, though San Jose would probably like to get their first win of the season series. Logan Couture, who was injured on the team’s trip to Alberta, is day-to-day, while Ryan Getzlaf will be a game-time decision after sitting for nine games with a lower-body injury.
