CALGARY - David Rittich is expected to get the start in tonight's divisional duel against the San Jose Sharks.
The netminder has won his last three starts, making 89 saves on the 96 shots he faced in that stretch. He has a 20-4-4 record with a 2.49 GAA and a .918 save percentage this season.
Tonight's projected lines and pairings are speculative, as the team held an optional skate this morning, and are based upon this week's practices and Sunday's game.
NOTE: Travis Hamonic, who left the game in Washington with a lower body injury, has skated this week. His status for this evening's game will be determined this afternoon. If he is unable to play, Dalton Prout and Rinat Valiev are options on the back-end.
