Stalock, who was scheduled to start on Tuesday must have suffered an injury in warmups, which is why Antti Niemi ended up getting the call in goal. With Stalock to IR, the Sharks have recalled Troy Grosenick from Worcester (AHL).
Killorn continues to progress, but still is not ready to play tonight vs. the Blackhawks. He is hoping to return to the lineup on Thursday.
Stalock stopped 37 of 40 shots in the Sharks’ win over Dallas on Saturday. He sat on Sunday and watched Antti Niemi allow four goals in a losing effort, so Stalock gets back between the pipes looking to work his way back in to the number-1 goalie conversation. He is 2-2-1 with a 2.38 GAA and .925 SV% to start the year, but has started just five of San Jose’s 16 games.
The Red Wings are off until Friday, so sending Mrazek back to Grand Rapids allows him to play games and not just sit with the Red Wings. Expect him to be recalled in-time to backup Jimmy Howard on Friday.
Killorn will miss his third straight game with an upper-body injury. He is nearing a return, but is not ready to go yet. He remains day-to-day.
Stalock stopped 13 of 15 shots, but walked away on the losing end of a 2-1 final on October 25th vs. Buffalo. Antti Niemi has played very well, which limited Stalock to four starts in the Sharks first 14 games. He is 1-2-1 with a 2.22 GAA and .924 SV% in the early part of the season.
Killorn is “getting close” but is not ready to return to the lineup tonight vs. Columbus. This will be the second straight game that he has missed and sixth in the last nine games. He should be considered questionable for Sunday's game in Detroit.
Stalock stopped 13 of 15 shots, but walked away on the losing end of a 2-1 final on October 25th vs. Buffalo. Antti Niemi has played very well, which limited Stalock to four starts in the Sharks first 14 games. He is 1-2-1 with a 2.22 GAA and .924 SV% in the early part of the season.
Mrazek, 22, has gone 1-2-0 with a 3.80 GAA and .854 SV% in four games with Grand Rapids this season. Mrazek was excellent in the preseason and has been solid in his brief time with the Red Wings. He is 3-5-0 with a 1.80 GAA and .926 SV% in his young NHL career. With Jonas Gustavsson out for two months, Mrazek should see a handful of starts, but the Red Wings do not have a back-to-back until December 6th and 7th, so he could be waiting awhile if the Wings decide to ride Jimmy Howard.
Killorn has missed practice for the last two days after suffering an upper-body injury on Saturday. The Lightning recalled Cedric Paquette yesterday, so look for him to play tomorrow because Killorn looks very doubtful.
Killorn recently returned from a four-game absence, but suffered an upper-body injury in his third game back on Saturday vs. Washington. Tampa Bay is off until Thursday, so no decision has been made on Killorn's status.
Killorn was held out of Saturday's game, but said that he is very close to returning to the lineup. He has missed a total of four games with an undisclosed injury, but Jonathan Marchessault and Mike Blunden were both reassigned to the AHL this morning, which suggests that Killorn, who is practicing this morning, will be back in the lineup on Tuesday. He has two goals and five games.
Killorn continues to make progress but is not quite ready to play Saturday. Look for him to play Tuesday vs. Arizona.
Stalock allowed four goals on 29 shots in a the Sharks 4-0 loss to the Rangers last Sunday. Antti Niemi gave up nine goals in his last two starts, so Stalock could earn himself a few more starts next week with a strong outing vs. the Sabres this afternoon… and that should not be too hard.
Killorn will not play on Friday but he is progressing well, but still does not have a timetable for his return. Monitor his status prior to Saturday's game.
Gudas missed the last four games with a lower-body injury he suffered on October 13. With Luke Witkowski going back to the AHL it is a guarantee that Gudas will be back in the lineup on Friday. He will skate on the second pair with Jason Garrison.
Killorn practiced with the team this afternoon, but is still a little bit away from returning to the lineup. The Lightning have a back-to-back on Friday and Saturday, so if he isn't available for tomorrow, there is a good chance he won't be ready for Saturday either.
Gudas, who was placed on injured reserve on Tuesday, has missed the last four games with the lower-body injury that he suffered 10 days ago. He is eligible to return to the lineup whenever he is healthy and it looks as if that might be tomorrow in Winnipeg.
Killorn missed both games of Tampa Bay's back-to-back on Monday and Tuesday with an undisclosed injury that he suffered in Monday's morning skate. Being on the ice this morning is a positive sign that he might be available for Friday's meeting with the Jets. We will get an update on his status following the practice.
Killorn fell into the boards at the morning skate on Monday and missed last night's game as a result. Originally the Lightning said he was fine and only got the wind knocked out of him, but it has clearly developed into a more serious issue.
