The San Jose Sharks (28-15-7, 2nd Pacific Division) meet the Florida Panthers (19-20-8, 6th Atlantic) in the second-to-last game of the pre-All Star East Coast trip.
Despite being 3-5-2 in their last 10 games, the Panthers have a two-game win streak coming off a 4-2 win over the Nashville Predators. The Panthers’ biggest threat will be 25-year-old Vincent Trocheck, who just came back from a nasty ankle injury. In his two games back, Trocheck has two goals and one assist.
The Sharks had a seven-game winning streak just last week, but have now lost two games in a row.
