Sharks Put Leddy on IR, Recall Giles as Klingberg Returns

Injuries force short-term roster shuffles for San Jose.

Overview

  • San Jose placed defenseman Nick Leddy on injured reserve retroactive to Oct. 23 after an upper-body injury sustained at Madison Square Garden.
  • Head coach Ryan Warsofsky labeled Leddy day-to-day, noting he skated Tuesday and that his absence is not expected to be lengthy.
  • The Sharks recalled center Patrick Giles from AHL San Jose to bolster forward depth after Adam Gaudette left Sunday’s game and is being evaluated.
  • Warsofsky said Gaudette likely will be out longer than Leddy, with further clarity expected after medical evaluation.
  • John Klingberg returned to the lineup after missing six games, and defenseman Shakir Mukhamadullin is considered day-to-day after practicing Tuesday.
