status report
Neither team had a morning skate. … Lankinen, a goalie, did not accompany the Canucks for the start of their four-game road trip due to personal reasons. … Demko has been unavailable for the last six games, but the goalkeeper is on tour. … Celebrini did not skate during the Sharks’ practice Thursday because of maintenance, but will play. … Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky said he expects Skinner and Misa to return to practice next Tuesday. Both forwards skated on their own Thursday.
