Mikael Granlund Exits Late With Injury Wednesday
3 days agoSan Jose Sharks forward Mikael Granlund (upper body) was injured late in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to Dallas. He exited after taking a big hit from Stars defenseman Ilya Lyubushkin. Granlund tallied a short-handed goal and an assist before leaving. The Finnish veteran tops San Jose's scoring charts with 22 points (nine goals, 13 assists) in 21 games. Sharks head coach Ryan Warsofsky didn't have an update on Granlund after Wednesday's contest, leaving him questionable for Thursday's meeting with St. Louis. If Granlund is out, Alex Wennberg will likely move to the top six, boosting his fantasy value. However, Wennberg has badly struggled in 2024-25, picking up nine points (three goals, six assists) in 21 games and going scoreless in 15 outings.
