Marchment collided with a teammate in Tuesday's game and gingerly left the ice before returning. It's unclear if this is related to what is currently troubling Marchment. The 30-year-old Marchment has been excellent since joining Columbus, scoring 27 points (14G / 13A) in 33 games.

Chernyshov recently made his return from a multi-game absence due to concussion, but returned to the sidelines on Wednesday due to an illness and remains uncertain for Thursday's game against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The 20-year-old Chernyshov has been productive in a small sample size during his first NHL season, scoring 14 points (5G / 9A) in 20 games.

The Sharks have collected some clutch victories in recent games, helping them stay within reach of a Wild Card spot in the Western Conference. Nedeljkovic largely struggled through much of March, posting an ugly 3.13 GAA and .877 SV% in 10 games (4-4-2), but will look to build on his most recent outing, a 22-save performance (.917 SV%) in a 3-2 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Sharks enter Thursday's contest as -120 home favourites against a Maple Leafs team coming off an impressive come-from-behind 5-4 overtime win over the Anaheim Ducks.

Dellandrea will slot into the lineup in place of Igor Chernyshov, who is out with an illness. Dellandrea has two goals and nine assists in 42 games this season.

Dellandrea has battled some injuries this season and has been sidelined since early January due to a lower-body injury, but he has been an effective bottom-six forward when healthy. The 25-year-old Dellandrea is averaging 14:24 time-on-ice, recording 11 points (2G / 9A) and 117 hits in 42 games this season. He signed a two-year contract worth $1.625 million AAV ($3.25M total) three weeks ago.

Askarov has battled through injuries recently and completed his first full game in nearly three weeks on Tuesday, saving 22 of 26 shots (.846 SV%) in a 5-4 win over the St. Louis Blues. Askarov was far from stellar in his return to action, but came up big when called upon, helping the Sharks stay within reach of a Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference. The Sharks will need Askarov to make timely saves again on Wednesday, entering the action as slight -103 home underdogs against an Anaheim Ducks team on a two-game losing streak (0-1-1).

Marchment collided with a teammate in Tuesday's game and gingerly left the ice before returning. It's unclear if this is related to what is currently troubling Marchment, but his status for Thursday's game against the Carolina Hurricanes is uncertain. The 30-year-old Marchment has been excellent since joining Columbus, scoring 27 points (14G / 13A) in 33 games.

Askarov was excellent in his return from a multi-week absence due to a lower-body injury, but he only lasted half the game before exiting with a new, unrelated injury. The 23-year-old Askarov saved all 11 shots he faced on Thursday before exiting the eventual 2-1 overtime loss to the St. Louis Blues. That said, his absence will be short-lived this time, returning to the crease on Monday in a rematch against the Blues. The Sharks enter Monday's contest with even -105 odds at home.

Toffoli has been sidelined with a lower-body injury for a week, but will return on Thursday against the St. Louis Blues. The 33-year-old Toffoli has 44 points (18G / 26A) in 67 games this season and would add a much-needed offensive boost for a Sharks team that is struggling to stay in playoff contention.

Askarov has not played in over two weeks, tending to a lower-body injury, but he will return to the crease on Thursday, hoping to stabilize a shaky crease for the Sharks. The Sharks have lost five straight games without Askarov, allowing four or more goals in each contest. That said, the 23-year-old Askarov has been far from a stabilizing force in recent outings, posting a 3.99 GAA and .869 SV% in seven games (2-4-1) since the beginning of February. The Sharks enter Thursday's contest as +118 road underdogs against a St. Louis Blues team that has outscored their opposition 6-1 during a two-game winning streak.
