Sharks' Marc-Edouard Vlasic: Traveling with team
Vlasic (back) could play during the team's six-game road trip after head coach Ryan Warsofsky told reporters Tuesday, "He's close. He practiced obviously yesterday, he'll practice tomorrow and then we'll circle back," per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.
Vlasic won't be an option to face the Capitals on Tuesday but looks close to getting back into action before the Sharks return home and face Utah on Dec. 14. Once the veteran blueliner does get the green light, he figures to replace Jan Rutta in the lineup, though Henry Thrun could also be in danger of being dropped.

Sharks' Marc-Edouard Vlasic: Lands on IR
Vlasic (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Monday, according to PuckPedia.
Vlasic has resumed skating, but he still needs time to continue progressing from his injury. The 37-year-old is considered week-to-week ahead of the 2024-25 campaign. Vlasic registered 12 points and a minus-27 rating in 57 regular-season contests in 2023-24.

Sharks' Marc-Edouard Vlasic: Considered week-to-week
Head coach Ryan Warsofsky said Monday that Vlasic (upper body) has resumed skating on his own and is considered week-to-week, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.
Vlasic has been sidelined since the start of training camp due to an upper-body injury, and it appears as though he'll miss the start of the 2024-25 regular season. It's not yet clear whether he'll require an IR stint to begin the year, but it's at least encouraging that he's been skating on his own ahead of Opening Night.

Sharks' Marc-Edouard Vlasic: Won't face Ducks
Vlasic (upper body) will be sidelined versus Anaheim on Tuesday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.
Vlasic managed just two points in the final 17 games of the 2024-25 campaign, finishing the year with 12 points in 57 outings. The veteran blueliner is far from a lock to be in the lineup on a nightly basis moving forward, especially given the younger players on the team looking for more opportunities. Even with a full 82-game campaign, Vlasic is unlikely to offer significantly more offensive production than he has in past seasons.

Vlasic (upper body) is expected to be in the lineup Saturday versus the Stars, per the NHL media site.
Vlasic will be eased in, as the Sharks will dress seven defensemen for Saturday's game. The 36-year-old missed three contests with the injury and should be able to handle a bottom-four role, while Ty Emberson (lower-body laceration) is out on a week-to-week basis.

Sharks' Marc-Edouard Vlasic: Still sitting out
Vlasic (upper body) won't play Tuesday against New Jersey, Sheng Peng of San Jose Hockey Now reports.
Although Vlasic will miss a second straight contest Tuesday, the veteran defender is reportedly "doing well," suggesting he probably won't be sidelined long term. Either way, Vlasic has picked up just seven points through 33 contests this season, so fantasy managers shouldn't need to track his status.

Sharks' Marc-Edouard Vlasic: Snags helper Thursday
Vlasic registered an assist, three blocked shots, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Flames.
Vlasic went into the All-Star break on a three-game goal streak. While he's not tickling the twine after the two-week break, he was able to pick up his first helper since Dec. 7 in this contest. The 36-year-old defenseman went from an occasional scratch to a lineup staple in January. He's now at seven points, 43 shots on net, 58 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating through 31 appearances. Vlasic is unlikely to score enough to help in fantasy.

Sharks' Marc-Edouard Vlasic: Finds twine again
Vlasic scored a goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Ducks.
Vlasic has scored in three straight games for the first time in his career, and he's potted five goals over his last nine contests. January has seen a renaissance of sorts for the 36-year-old blueliner, but it's unlikely to be a long-lasting surge. He's at six points, 40 shots on net, 53 blocked shots and a minus-11 rating through 29 appearances this season.

Sharks' Marc-Edouard Vlasic: Scores in Tuesday's win
Vlasic scored a goal on four shots and blocked four shots in Tuesday's 2-0 win over the Kraken.
Vlasic broke a scoreless deadlock in the third period with his fourth goal in the last eight games. That stretch accounts for all of his goals this season, and he's added one assist, 37 shots on net, 51 blocked shots and a minus-11 rating through 28 appearances. While he was an occasional healthy scratch earlier in the campaign, injuries to Mario Ferraro (lower body) and Henry Thrun (shoulder) have opened up more consistent playing time for Vlasic in January.

Sharks' Marc-Edouard Vlasic: Welcomes back captain with goal
Vlasic registered a goal in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Ducks.
The Sharks were finally able to plug captain Logan Couture (lower body) in the lineup for his season debut, and it paid immediate dividends, as the point-packing pivot fed Vlasic on the rush for the game's first goal. The Sharks rank dead last in scoring at 2.04 goals per game, with Vlasic picking up just three points through 24 games, but Couture being back in the fold should stop the bleeding to a tangible degree.
