Sharks head coach David Quinn alluded to potential lineup changes ahead of Tuesday's game due to injury/illness, and it appears Duclair is the change he was referring to. Duclair has eight goals and eight assists in 40 games this season.
Duclair was a healthy scratch in the Sharks' 6-2 loss to the Colorado Avalanche on Sunday but will return to the lineup Tuesday night against the Los Angeles Kings. Duclair has played predominantly with Mikael Granlund and Fabian Zetterlund, scoring 11 points (6G / 5A) in 27 games this season.
Duclair exited Sunday's game against the Vegas Golden Knights with an upper-body injury after playing only 5:50 time-on-ice, depleting a Sharks offence that was already without William Eklund, leading to Tomas Hertl playing a season-high 28:46. Duclair has five points (3G / 2A) in his last five games along with a +6 plus/minus and will be ready to play on Tuesday against the Edmonton Oilers.

Duclair has five points (3G / 2A) in his last five games along with a +6 plus/minus and remains questionable to play on Tuesday.
Duclair missed the last three games as he recovered from strep throat but is expected to return to the Sharks' lineup Thursday vs. St. Louis. The 28-year-old winger is in his first season with San Jose (7th NHL team) and has three goals, two assists, 24 SOG, 20 PIMs and a -12 plus/minus through 13 games played.
Duclair has been unavailable for the Sharks last two games as he has battled an illness but was a game-time decision on Tuesday against the Florida Panthers. Before stepping out of the lineup, Duclair was on a nice run, posting four points (2G / 2A) in his last three games.

Duclair was a late scratch for Friday's game with Sharks head coach David Quinn only alluding to "a couple of guys" not feeling well heading into Friday night's game in Vegas. Duclair has three goals and two assists through his first 13 games of the season. Oskar Lindblom will make his season debut in place of Duclair.
Duclair left Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final due to an undisclosed injury after 13:31 TOI but is expected to be in the Panthers' lineup for Game 5 on Tuesday. The 27-year-old has four goals, 11 points, 37 SOG, 16 PIMs and a -5 plus/minus through 19 games so far in the playoffs.
Duclair missed Game 4 due to an undisclosed injury but will draw back into the Panthers' lineup for Game 5 on Wednesday. The 27-year-old has struggled in the post-season so far, failing to pick up a point so far with seven SOG and a -6 plus/minus through three games so far.
Duclair missed the Panthers' previous game due to illness but will draw back into the Florida lineup Thursday vs. Toronto after dealing with an illness. The 27-year-old left-winger has a goal, three assists, 23 SOG, and a +1 plus/minus through nine injury-filled games this season.
Duclair was held out of Thursday's practice because he was under the weather and will not play in Friday's game vs. Chicago. Since Duclair can't go, look for Sam Reinhart to move back up to the top line with Aleksander Barkov.

Duclair has not played this season due to an offseason Achilles injury but will make his season debut Friday vs. Buffalo. The 27-year-old is coming off a career year, where he had 31 goals, 27 assists, 167 SOG, 30 PIMs and a +19 plus/minus through 74 games in 2021-22.
Duclair was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, and head coach Paul Maurice said that he "looks like he’s ready to go.” Duclair, who had 31 goals and 27 assists (58 points) in 74 games last season, skated on a line with Eetu Luostarinen and Nick Cousins in practice.
Duclair is nearing his season debut, and it could come as early as Friday vs. the Sabres, according to head coach Paul Maurice. The Panthers will wait and see how Duclair responds to practice this week before making a decision on his status for Friday's game.
