Sharks defenseman Shakir Mukhamadullin is being evaluated for an upper-body injury sustained during a game against the Anaheim Ducks. Coach Ryan Warsofsky indicated that it is still uncertain whether Mukhamadullin will participate in the subsequent game against the Edmonton Oilers. The injury occurred after a collision, leading to a response from Ducks player Frank Vatrano that Warsofsky deemed inappropriate. The Sharks coach expressed a desire for a stronger physical response from his team during the incident, indicating the team's need for growth and adaptation.
We're not sure yet, if Mukhamadullin would have to miss Thursday's game, Warsofsky said. He's still seeing our doctors.
I thought (Mukhamadullin) kind of ran into (Terry). It's probably a marginal call at best, Warsofsky said.
We don't like what Vatrano does, probably wish we would have handled it a little bit differently, he said.
A more physical response, perhaps? You look back and you probably say yes, Warsofsky said.
