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

Impact 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.

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

Impact 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.

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

Impact Desharnais missed Friday's 3-2 win over Vancouver. It was originally believed that he was a healthy scratch for that game, but head coach Ryan Warsofsky revealed Saturday that Desharnais has been dealing with this injury "for a little bit," so perhaps that had a bearing on Warsofsky's decision. Desharnais is currently considered day-to-day, but the coach 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. Vincent Iorio drew into the lineup Friday and will likely play again Saturday due to Desharnais' absence.

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

Impact 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.

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.

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

Impact 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 players probably aren't too concerned about getting him back into the lineup.

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

Impact 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.

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

Impact Desharnais' ongoing absence will prevent him from playing against one of his former teams.

Unavailable Saturday Desharnais (upper body) will miss Saturday's tilt versus the Rangers, according to Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News.

Impact Desharnais was injured Thursday against the Maple Leafs, but managed to play through the injury. He has three assists, 87 hits, 83 blocked shots and 45 PIM in 51 contests with Vancouver, Pittsburgh and San Jose this season.

MARCH 29 • ROTOWIRE

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.

Impact 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.

MARCH 28 • ROTOWIRE

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

Impact 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.

MARCH 28 • ROTOWIRE

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

Impact 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.
