The San Jose Sharks drop the puck in an early one today against the New York Islanders. They will do so for the first time this season without the likes of their center Joe Thornton. Thornton was placed on Injured Reserve and did not make the trip to the east coast. It isn’t all bad news however, as the Sharks do not think there is any structural damage to his knee.
The full story on #SJSharks decision to place Joe Thornton on IR. ‘I don’t think anybody is overly concerned. We’re just making sure that we do this right’.
