SAN JOSE – Jannik Hansen has arrived for his first practice in a Sharks jersey, skating on the top line with Joe Thornton and Joe Pavelski.
The 30-year-old was acquired on Feb. 28 from Vancouver for a conditional fourth round draft pick and prospect Nikolay Goldobin, but was held up from joining his new team as he sorted out immigration.
The other lines at practice were Logan Couture between Patrick Marleau and Mikkel Boedker; Tomas Hertl centering Melker Karlsson and Joonas Donskoi, and a fourth line of Chris Tierney centering Joel Ward and Marcus Sorensen. Micheal Haley was the odd man out.
