SAN JOSE – Sharks centers Joe Thornton and Logan Couture both took part in the team’s practice on Monday, as San Jose prepares to face Edmonton in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Thornton and Couture were each wearing a white practice sweater, typically worn by players on the top line, and were joined by wingers Joe Pavelski and Melker Karlsson. Thornton, who looked to be moving well, was also taking some shifts on the fourth line.
Last week, Thornton said there was “no doubt” he would be ready for Game 1, which takes place at Edmonton’s Rogers Place on Wednesday.
