Sharks Lineup

At this point, it would be shocking if the Sharks actually made a lineup change, seeing as they’ve used the same exact group for the first five games of the series, with the lone exception having come when Martin Jones was relieved by backup goalie James Reimer during Game 4. After a dominant victory in Game 5, it makes total sense for San Jose to roll with the same exact group and hope that they can get similar results in Game 6.
