The Boston Sharks had quite the homecoming yesterday as they practiced at the Boston Bruins' home, TD Garden.

Smith, Celebrini, and Thrun have played at TD Garden before during the traditional Beanpot tournament. Smith and Celebrini played against each other last season. Boston University and Macklin Celebrini would defeat Will Smith and Boston College 4-3.

Celebrini scored twice in that game, and Smith had one assist.

As for the NHL game today, the Sharks and Bruins are dealing with tons of injuries.

The San Jose Sharks have had many players in the locker room sick, so the lineup has changed. Timothy Liljegren and Yaroslav Askarov both return from illness.

Marc-Edouard Vlasic will miss the game due to an illness he played through against the New York Islanders. Nikolai Kovalenko was activated from injured reserve but won't play.

Arguably, the Sharks' most significant loss is Tyler Toffoli. The forward will miss his second straight game due to a lower-body injury. Warsofsky has told reporters that he thinks he's day-to-day.

Lineups will become official right after pregame warmups, which are scheduled to begin at 9:30 a.m. PT.
