The San Jose Sharks recalled defenseman Mirco Mueller from the San Jose Barracuda of the American Hockey League (AHL) on Thursday morning. The move doesn’t come as much of a surprise as the Sharks will likely be without one of their top five blue liners as Brenden Dillon isn’t expected to go tonight when San Jose hosts the Calgary Flames.
Dillon left the Sharks 2-0 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks early in the first period with an upper-body injury.
