The San Jose Sharks find themselves in yet another win-or-go-home situation on Tuesday evening. This time, it is against the Blues in St. Louis in Game 6 of the Western Conference final.
Team Teal will be without Tomas Hertl and Erik Karlsson in Tuesday's contest, as well as Joe Pavelski after the captain didn't participate in pregame warmups. Both Hertl and Karlsson were absent from the Sharks' bench in the third period of their Game 5 loss to St. Louis with unspecified injuries. Pavelski left the game in the third frame after sustaining a hit from Blues captain Alex Pietrangelo.
