  • Recaps of the Sharks' 3-2 win over Arizona. [Fear The Fin] [Mercury News] [CSN Bay Area] [SF Chronicle] [Five For Howling] [NHL.com]
  • Tyler Kennedy talked about his return to the lineup following a five-week stint on injured reserve. [Working the Corners]
  • San Jose's signing of Melker Karlsson, apart from currently paying great dividends, was part of a NHL-wide raid of the Swedish Hockey League team Skelleftea IK following their championship last season. St. Louis, Philadelphia and Nashville signed Karlsson's former teammates Joakim Lindstrom, Pierre-Edouard Bellemare and Johan Alm, respectively. [Pro Hockey Talk]
  • Buffalo retired all-time great Dominik Hasek's jersey last night. [Eye On Hockey]
