Top Vincent Desharnais News

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Deemed week-to-week

    Desharnais (upper body) is week-to-week, according to Max Miller of NHL.com on Tuesday.

    Desharnais has missed the last three games, and the Sharks moved him to injured reserve before Monday's 6-3 win over Utah. He has generated two assists, 12 shots on goal, 34 blocked shots and 28 hits across 20 appearances this season.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Placed on injured reserve

    Desharnais (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Monday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Desharnais missed Saturday's game against the Golden Knights due to his upper-body injury, and he's facing a multi-game absence after landing on injured reserve. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return to action, but Pavol Regenda was called up by the Sharks in a corresponding move Monday.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Dealing with upper-body injury

    Desharnais (upper body) will miss Saturday's game against Vegas, per Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now.

    Desharnais also missed Friday's 3-2 win over Vancouver. Head coach Ryan Warsofsky revealed Saturday that Desharnais has been dealing with this injury "for a little bit." Desharnais is currently considered day-to-day, but the Warsofsky also said he's "gotta get it looked at," which suggests that the 29-year-old defenseman will undergo further evaluation. Desharnais has two assists, 28 hits and 34 blocks in 20 outings this season.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Snags helper in loss

    Desharnais notched an assist, two blocked shots and 10 PIM in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Mammoth.

    This was Desharnais' season debut as he filled in for John Klingberg (lower body) and Shakir Mukhamadullin (undisclosed). With injuries piling up on the Sharks' blue line, Desharnais should get a chance to fill a third-pairing role for a while. He had three assists in 51 regular-season games between the Sharks, Penguins and Canucks last year, so he has minimal upside on offense, but he can bring some physicality.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Healthy for training camp

    Desharnais (upper body) took part in Thursday's practice, per Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News, which suggests that he's healthy for the start of training camp.

    Desharnais didn't play past March 27 due to the injury. He had three assists, 45 PIM, 87 hits and 83 blocks in 51 regular-season appearances between Vancouver, Pittsburgh and San Jose last year. Desharnais is in the mix for a spot on the Sharks' Opening Night roster.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Remains sidelined for Monday's game

    Desharnais (upper body) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Vancouver, and he's unlikely to play Wednesday against the Oilers, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.

    Desharnais has missed the last nine games due to an upper-body injury, and it seems unlikely that he'll return to game action before the end of the regular season. The 28-year-old has made 51 appearances between Vancouver, Pittsburgh and San Jose this year, racking up three assists, 87 hits, 83 blocked shots and 45 PIM while averaging 15:55 of ice time.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Not suiting up in Calgary

    Desharnais (upper body) will remain sidelined for Sunday's road matchup versus the Flames, per the NHL media site.

    Desharnais will miss his ninth consecutive game Sunday, and he probably won't be available for the second half of San Jose's back-to-back set in Vancouver on Monday. The right-shot defenseman has suited up in just seven games for the Sharks since being acquired from Pittsburgh on March 5.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Won't play Friday

    Desharnais (upper body) will not be in action against Edmonton on Friday, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.

    Desharnais is running out of time to return to the lineup before the end of the 2024-25 campaign, with just three games remaining after Friday's clash. Considering the 28-year-old blueliner hasn't registered a point in 29 consecutive contests, fantasy managers probably aren't too concerned about getting him back into the lineup.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Unavailable against Minnesota

    Desharnais (upper body) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Wild, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.

    Desharnais will miss a seventh consecutive game due to his upper-body injury, but he's been practicing recently and is with the Sharks on their current road trip, so he may be close to returning. His next opportunity to suit up will be Friday against Edmonton.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Won't play Monday

    Desharnais (upper body) won't be available for Monday's game against Calgary, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.

    Desharnais participated in Monday's morning skate and will travel with the team, indicating he could return from a six-game absence soon. He has compiled three assists, 28 shots on goal, 87 hits, 83 blocked shots and 45 PIM in 51 contests with San Jose, Vancouver and Pittsburgh this season. Once healthy, Desharnais could replace Lucas Carlsson or Jack Thompson in the lineup.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Not playing Saturday

    Desharnais (upper body) won't play against Seattle on Saturday, per Max Miller of NHL.com.

    Desharnais will miss his fifth straight game, and it's unclear when he will return to the lineup. He has contributed three assists, 87 hits, 83 blocked shots and 45 PIM in 51 contests with Vancouver, Pittsburgh and San Jose this season.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Remains unavailable

    Desharnais is not in the lineup Thursday versus the Oilers, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.

    Desharnais' ongoing absence will prevent him from playing against one of his former teams. The 28-year-old defenseman's status hasn't been officially updated since he was ruled out for the Sharks' last road trip. Desharnais may not get a spot in the lineup even once healthy as the Sharks continue to rotate in some younger blueliners.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Set to miss next three games

    Desharnais (upper body) won't play Saturday versus the Rangers and won't be available for San Jose's upcoming two-game road trip, according to Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News.

    Desharnais played through an injury in Thursday's shootout win over Toronto, but he'll be out until at least April 3 versus Edmonton. He has three assists, 87 hits, 83 blocked shots and 45 PIM in 51 contests with Vancouver, Pittsburgh and San Jose this season. Jimmy Schuldt will replace Desharnais in Saturday's lineup.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Questionable for Saturday

    Desharnais (upper body) is questionable for Saturday's clash against the Rangers, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports Friday.

    Desharnais was able to play through his upper-body injury Thursday versus Toronto, but coach Ryan Warsofsky cautioned that it's a fairly significant issue, so the 28-year-old might need to sit out Saturday. Desharnais has three assists, 45 PIM, 87 hits and 83 blocks in 51 appearances between Vancouver, Pittsburgh and San Jose in 2024-25. The Sharks might need to recall a defenseman because Marc-Edouard Vlasic (upper body) is also questionable, while Henry Thrun (upper body) and Jan Rutta (lower body) are expected to miss the upcoming game.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Good to go Thursday

    Desharnais (upper body) will play Thursday versus the Maple Leafs, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Desharnais will avoid missing time after sitting out Monday's practice session. The 28-year-old defenseman has not earned a point since Dec. 23 when he was a member of the Canucks, going scoreless over 28 contests since across three teams.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Sits out practice

    Desharnais (upper body) is day-to-day after missing Monday's practice, per Max Miller of NHL.com.

    Desharnais still has time to recover before Thursday's matchup against Toronto. The 28-year-old defender has three assists, 28 shots on goal, 80 blocked shots and 86 hits in 50 games between San Jose, Vancouver and Pittsburgh this season. If Desharnais and Marc-Edouard Vlasic (upper body) can't play versus the Maple Leafs, San Jose will probably recall a blueliner from the minors.

  • Sharks' Vincent Desharnais: Dealt again

    Desharnais was traded to the Sharks from the Penguins on Wednesday in exchange for a 2028 fifth-round pick.

    Desharnais failed to record a point over 10 contests with the Penguins, adding seven shots on goal, 19 hits, 20 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating. He was included in the Marcus Pettersson trade between Vancouver and Pittsburgh at the end of January, but he was unable to make a positive impression with the Penguins. He'll have an easier path to playing time with the Sharks, but he remains a poor option for fantasy managers since he doesn't score much.

  • Penguins' Vincent Desharnais: Traded in five-player deal

    Desharnais was traded to the Penguins from the Canucks on Friday, along with Danton Heinen, Melvin Fernstrom and a conditional first-round pick, in exchange for Marcus Pettersson and Drew O'Connor.

    Desharnais signed with the Canucks as a free agent ahead of 2024-25, but he was ultimately limited to three assists, 54 hits, 48 blocked shots, 34 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 34 appearances. He was unable to carve out a steady third-pairing role after seeing similar usage with the Oilers in 2024-25. Desharnais addresses a minor need for the Penguins as a right-handed blueliner, and he'll bring significant physical force to the third pairing. This will also put Ryan Shea and Pierre-Olivier Joseph on notice for playing time even with another defenseman in Pettersson heading to Vancouver in this deal.
