What updates are there on Will Smith's return to the Sharks?

Podcast Host 0:11
Will Smith's return to the lineup looks imminent, possibly as soon as January 15th against the Washington Capitals. His upper body injury has improved, now listed as day-to-day instead of week-to-week. The key test comes Wednesday, when the Sharks practice in Washington, D.C., Smith needs at least one full contact session, maybe two, to get cleared. For game action, the timing lines up with a tough road trip. The Sharks face the Capitals on January 15th and the Detroit Red Wings on January 16th, followed by the Florida Panthers and Tampa Bay. Lightning on January 19th and 20th. Meanwhile, two defensemen are making progress too. Shakir Mukamadoulin and Vincent Desharnais, both sidelined by upper body issues, practiced today and should travel with the team.

Still, Coach Steve Worsofsky says neither is clearly ahead in their recovery.

Winger Philip Kurashev won't join the trip tomorrow, but there's hope he catches up later. Keep an eye on these returns, as they could boost the Sharks big time. Special thanks to our sponsor for supporting this episode. When I need calm, I press play on a Soli pillow.
