Sharks coach Pete DeBoer not ruling out changes

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Sharks coach Pete DeBoer didn't rule out lineup changes for Thursday's Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinals series against the Nashville Predators.

Without naming specific players, DeBoer said Wednesday some Sharks are being medically evaluated and the team will know more Thursday morning. The Sharks have stuck with the same lineup and largely the same forward lines throughout their first eight playoff games.It didn't appear any Sharks had suffered significant injuries in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Predators in Game 3. Lines were shuffled in the third period, though, as DeBoer said, "We had a few things going on on the bench with skates and minor injuries with guys leaving and coming back, so that probably was a little bit of it.
