The Sharks are coming off a 3-1 win over the Bruins when Georgiev saved 22 of 23 shots (.957 SV%), and he will return to the crease on Thursday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The 29-year-old Georgiev has an unflattering 3.57 GAA and .876 SV% in 42 appearances this season (14-23-1) but was excellent in an outing against the Maple Leafs earlier this month, saving 25 of 27 shots (.926 SV%) in a 3-2 shootout win. Still, the Sharks enter Thursday's contest as sizable +210 home underdogs against a Maple Leafs team coming off a 7-2 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers.

Beck was a seventh-round pick, 194th overall, of the St. Louis Blues in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft. The 24-year-old defenseman has spent the previous five seasons playing collegiate hockey, most recently scoring 33 points (5G / 28A) in 37 games with Arizona State University (NCHC).

Lund was a second-round pick, 34th overall, of the Sharks in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft. The 20-year-old forward scored an impressive 40 points (18G / 22A) in 37 games, playing collegiate hockey with Northeastern University (H-East) this season.

Desharnais did not practice on Monday and is day-to-day with an upper-body injury. The 28-year-odl defenseman is averaging 15:58 time-on-ice and has three points (0G / 3A) in 50 games this season.





Wennberg showed no signs of an injury in Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes, recording 19:55 time-on-ice, but his status is up in the air for Saturday's contest against the Boston Bruins. The 30-year-old Wennberg is averaging 18:20 time-on-ice and has 31 points (8G / 23A) in 64 games this season.

Schuldt played five games with the Sharks, his first NHL action since making his debut with the Vegas Golden Knights in the 2018-19 season, but will return to AHL. The Sharks recalled Lucas Carlsson from the San Jose Barracuda (AHL) in a corresponding move.

Carlsson has not played an NHL game since a two-game stint with the Florida Panthers in the 2022-23 season, but could get an opportunity to draw into the Sharks' lineup. The 27-year-old defenseman has 23 points (10G / 13A) in 44 games with the San Jose Barracuda (AHL) this season. Jimmy Schuldt has been re-assigned to the San Jose Barracuda in a corresponding move.

With Marc-Edouard Vlasic (upper body) sidelined on Thursday against the Carolina Hurricanes, Schuldt will re-enter the lineup. The 29-year-old Schuldt is averaging 14:36 time-on-ice and has zero point in four games this season.

The 37-year-old Vlasic is averaging 15:28 time-on-ice, recording two points (0G / 2A), a -8 plus/minus, and 29 blocks in 17 games this season. Jimmy Schuldt will draw into the lineup as Vlasic's replacement.
