Sharks place Klingberg on IR, recall Patrick Giles from the Barracuda

The Sharks have placed John Klingberg on injured reserve and recalled forward Patrick Giles from the San Jose Barracuda to fill the open roster spot.

Klingberg suffered a lower-body injury against the Wild that forced him to miss their last game against the Lightning. He will now head to IR for at least a week. Per Sheng Peng, Warsofsky is optimistic that Klingberg will be able to return after the 1-week IR period ends.

Klingberg has been able to turn around what was a disastrous start to his Sharks campaign. He has five goals and 7 points over his last 10 games and now has 16 points in 31 games, good for a 37-point pace over 72 games.
