SAN JOSE – None of the injured Sharks players will return to the lineup on Thursday night against the Los Angeles Kings, although it seems that defenseman Paul Martin is progressing.
Martin skated for the first time with his teammates since he was hurt against New Jersey last Friday after catching a rut in the Prudential Center ice. He stayed out for extra work, too.
“Good step forward,” coach Pete DeBoer said. “He feels good, and we’ll just take it there day-by-day.
