LOS ANGELES — Ty Dellandrea looks like he will not be available for the San Jose Sharks on Wednesday night.
San Jose Hockey Now has learned that Dellandrea did not travel with the Sharks to Los Angeles, where they’ll match up against the Los Angeles Kings tonight.
Dellandrea left Tuesday’s 5-2 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets after a Denton Mateychuk trip caused the centerman to crash into goaltender Jet Greaves.

Dellandrea, the Sharks’ third-line center and a go-to penalty killer, was already battling through multiple injuries this season, and has two goals and 11 points in 42 games. He also leads San Jose with a 52.3 Faceoff Winning %, which Sharks faceoff consultant Zenon Konopka spoke to recently on the San Jose Hockey Now Podcast.
There’s no word yet on the extent of Dellandrea’s injury.
Immediately, San Jose did recall center Patrick Giles on Monday. Giles can potentially take over 4C duties, and Zack Ostapchuk could get promoted to Dellandrea’s spot.
Center-winger Adam Gaudette (lower-body), who’s been practicing for a few days now, could also make his return to the line-up?
Long-term, top prospect Michael Misa, just back from the World Junior Championships, could also take on a more regular role in the line-up.
Wisely, the Sharks left Misa at home today though. The 19-year-old returned to San Jose on Tuesday after an emotionally-charged seven games in 11 days for Canada, from Dec. 26 to Jan. 5.
“We’ll give him a few days there to catch his breath,” head coach Ryan Warsofsky said on Tuesday morning, “and we’ll go from there.”
San Jose Sharks (21-18-3)
Yaroslav Askarov should draw the start in the back-to-back.
Head coach Ryan Warsofsky will give more line-up details for the back-to-back at about 5 PM PT.
