San Jose Sharks forward Alexander Wennberg, who has been stuck at 99 career goals, is expected to return from an upper-body injury for a game against the Calgary Flames. He has struggled to find the net since December 14, scoring eight goals in 52 games this season. With Mikael Granlund traded, Wennberg will have a more significant role on the team. He mentioned that the recent break helped him reset both mentally and physically, increasing his eagerness to return to play and pursue his milestone 100th goal.
Wennberg stated, "It would be nice to get the 100th. I've had my opportunities, but yeah, it will come. I gotta start shooting a little bit more..."
"You get the chance to watch a team play. When you play in the game, it's so different from when you're looking from above..."
"Being away gives you a little bit of a jump in your step because you're missing a little bit more than you usually do."
