Kevin Labanc Rejoins Sharks Lineup Thursday
2 years agoSan Jose Sharks winger Kevin Labanc (personal) will re-enter the lineup Thursday against St. Louis. He was unavailable for Tuesday's clash with Montreal as Labanc expected the birth of his son. With Timo Meier now out of town, Labanc is the fourth-highest scorer among Sharks forwards, having recorded 25 points across 51 outings. Labanc has already gotten usage on the first line and could get to play an even bigger role after Meier's departure, although his first aim will be to lock up a regular spot in the lineup. The 27-year-old has been a healthy scratch multiple times since the turn of the year and Sharks head coach David Quinn doesn't tend to have much patience with Labanc.
