San Jose Sharks winger Fabian Zetterlund (lower body) will be in the lineup on Friday versus Utah. A lower-body injury initially left him doubtful for Friday's action, but Zetterlund has recovered well enough to play. The Swedish forward is the fourth-highest scorer on the Sharks squad, sporting 27 points (11 goals, 16 assists) through 43 appearances. However, Zetterlund has struggled to add to his tally since last month, going scoreless in 10 of his last 16 outings. Things haven't gone well for Zetterlund recently, but he has certainly enjoyed frustrating Utah. Zetterlund has finished both of the previous two clashes between the teams this season with two points.
San Jose Sharks forward Fabian Zetterlund will be back at practice on Friday after missing Thursday's session due to illness. The 24-year-old is having a decent season, at least from a goal-scoring perspective, as his 12 goals on the season sit second only to Tomas Hertl's 13 among Sharks skaters. He has added six helpers for 18 points alongside 105 shots on goal across 45 games for the last-place Sharks this season. Acquired in last year's deal that saw 40-goal scorer Timo Meier head to the Devils, Zetterlund is the Sharks' most prized forward outside of Hertl and captain Logan Couture who has yet to play this season due to a lower-body injury suffered just before training camp.
