On the Sharks/'Hawks' game:
Darling has been showing signs of fatigue, the last two games, and he played last night. He hasn't started this many consecutive games, yet, in his career. Crawford is skating, but, may not be ready...it may be an NHL debut for Johanssen. Q didn't plan on using the guy, but, he may have to.
Anisimov left the game in the 1st last night, and did not return...few details..."upper body injury". Q was unwilling to break up Rasmussen/Kruger/Panik last night...Kruger is usually the C that slides to top 6, but in the game, Q moved Desjardins from #4 LW to #2C, between Hartman and Hossa...He loaded up line one with Panarin/Toews/Kane...I expect the same tonight, if AA can't go...Motte would be the one to come out of the pressbox and slot in at #4LW, with Hinostroza and Tootoo.
