Sharks get good news on one injured player; outlook for two others appears grim

Alexander Barabanov and Markus Nutivaara might not be available for the San Jose Sharks’ first two regular season games in the Czech Republic next week

SAN JOSE – Alexander Barabanov and Markus Nutivaara are not progressing from their respective injuries and as of Friday there was no guarantee either player would be available for the San Jose Sharks’ first two regular-season games in the Czech Republic next week.

Earlier in September, general manager Mike Grier said the Sharks can take up to 27 players to Europe, so the team might be hesitant to bring Barabanov and Nutivaara overseas if there was any question about whether they can play. Nutivaara played in last Sunday’s preseason game at home against Los Angeles but did not feel healthy the following day and has stayed off the ice this week.

“He defends well, he can make an outlet pass, he’s a penalty killer, and he’s a quality person that brings character to the team,” Quinn said. “So he’s an important player, and he’s played to his strengths since he’s been here.”
