San Jose Sharks prospect William Eklund was injured in an AHL game on March 22.
SAN JOSE — Defenseman Henry Thrun, who signed an entry-level contract with the Sharks over the weekend, will make his NHL debut on Thursday, coach David Quinn said.
Thrun arrived in San Jose on Monday, two days after he signed a two-year deal with the Sharks that expires after the 2023-24 season. Thrun, though, arrived too late to be able to practice with the Sharks, and was ruled out for tonight’s game at SAP Center against the Winnipeg Jets. Thrun, 22, skated with the Sharks on Tuesday morning and is slated to play Thursday when the Sharks host the Vegas Golden Knights.Wingers Andreas Johnsson and Evgeny Svechnikov could miss the rest of the regular season with lower body injuries, Quinn said.
Johnsson was injured when he blocked a shot in the Sharks’ game on March 20 against the Edmonton Oilers. Svechnikov hasn’t played since he was hurt in San Jose’s game with the Seattle Kraken on March 16. Quinn said he didn’t have a health update on forward William Eklund, who was injured in a San Jose Barracuda on March 22 game against the Colorado Eagles.
