Barbashev, a forward, will miss his fourth straight game. ... Eklund and Walman each will not play, Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky said. ... Kostin took part in San Jose's morning skate in a regular jersey but is expected to miss his sixth consecutive game; the forward could return against the Calgary Flames on Saturday.
