The San Jose Sharks hope to start 2019 on a good note, getting set to take on the Colorado Avalanche tonight at Pepsi Center.
Coming off of a brutal 8-5 loss to the Calgary Flames on New Year’s Eve, the Sharks will be without the services of Radim Simek tonight. You may recall that he was the subject of a late hit from Sam Bennett — a hit that Bennett did not receive any supplemental discipline for — that concussed Simek, and there’s no current timetable for his return.
