The San Jose Sharks are back at it today, hopefully not too full on turkey, turducken and whatever else Ryan Reaves carved up, the Toffoli family served up and the rest of the players cooked up. With an afternoon start, it’s a quick turnaround for the Sharks.
Meantime, the Vancouver Canucks enjoyed American Thanksgiving on the road after beating the Anaheim Ducks 5-4 in regulation on Wednesday night despite being outshot 41-28. Vancouver is having a tough go of it this season with a 10-12-2 record and a .458 points percentage. Things got even tougher last week when starting netminder Thatcher Demko was placed on injured reserve knocking him out of the line up for several weeks.
