Askarov will be back between the pipes for the Sharks tonight after Alex Nedeljkovic got the nod in the front-end of their back-to-back on Wednesday. Askarov had a rough outing in his last start, allowing five goals on 33 shots in a 6-3 loss to the Predators on Saturday.

The Sharks need near-perfect in their final six games of the season as they battle for a Wild Card Spot in the Western Conference, and will turn to Nedeljkovic on Wednesday against the Edmonton Oilers. The 30-year-old Nedeljkovic was solid in his previous outing, saving 22 of 24 shots (.917 SV%) in a 3-2 win over the Chicago Blackhawks. He has helped his team record at least a point in four straight appearances (3-0-1), posting a solid 1.95 GAA and .918 SV%. The Sharks enter Wednesday's contest as slight +103 home underdogs against an Oilers team coming off a 6-5 overtime loss to the Utah Mammoth last night.
Adam Gaudette will re-enter San Jose's lineup on Wednesday, resulting in Dellandrea being a healthy scratch. The 25-year-old Dellandrea has been used sparingly since returning from an injury earlier this month. He is averaging 14:11 time-on-ice and has 11 points (2G / 9A) in 44 games this season.
Ty Dellandrea will be a healthy scratch on Wednesday, allowing Gaudette to re-enter the lineup. The 29-year-old Guadette is averaging 11:33 time-on-ice and has 25 points (17G / 8A) in 62 games this season.
John Klingberg will return from an injury on Wednesday, sending Mukhamadullin to the sidelines as a healthy scratch. The 24-year-old Mukhamadullin is averaging 16:51 time-on-ice and has 11 points (4G / 7A) in 45 games this season.
Shakir Mukhamadullin will be a healthy scratch on Wednesday, accommodating Klingberg's return from a two-week injury. The 33-year-old Klingberg has 24 points (10G / 14A) in 54 games this season, but he has been held off the scoresheet in nine of his last 11 games.

He has a 2.93 GAA and .883 SV% since the beginning of March (5-4-2).

With their playoff hopes on the line, the Sharks will continue their push, with their offensive leader, Celebrini, in the lineup on Monday.
