Assists in back-to-back games Ferraro notched a power-play assist and two PIM in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Coyotes.
Impact Ferraro was serving a minor penalty for holding when Tomas Hertl got the Sharks on the board in the second period. In the third, Ferraro set up Patrick Marleau's goal with the man advantage. The 22-year-old Ferraro has a career-high 12 points with 41 shots on net, 89 hits, 53 blocked shots and 12 PIM in 32 contests. Three of his 11 assists have come on the power play.

Sets up shorthanded tally Karlsson produced a shorthanded assist, two shots on net and two blocked shots in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Coyotes.
Impact Karlsson had the lone assist on a Tomas Hertl shorthanded goal in the second period. The helper snapped Karlsson's four-game point drought. The Swede has struggled in 2020-21 with only 11 points, 53 shots, 38 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 28 contests.

The Swiss winger is up to 21 points (nine on the power play), 83 shots, 45 hits and a minus-1 rating through 30 contests. His scoring rate of 0.7 points per game is right in line with how he performed last year, although he's not playing as physically as he did in 2019-20.

Gets on scoresheet with PPG Marleau scored a power-play goal on three shots and added two hits in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Coyotes.
Impact Marleau ended a goal drought of 15 games with his second tally of the year. He had also gone eight contests without a point. The 41-year-old hasn't done much on offense in 2020-21 with just six points through 32 appearances. He's added 34 shots on goal and 27 hits, but there's little reason for fantasy managers to consider the veteran for their rosters.

The goal was Hertl's 10th of the year, and his first shorthanded point. He's at 20 points (seven on the power play), 46 shots on net and a minus-2 rating through 26 appearances.

Impact Jones entered Friday on a hot run, but that ended in this contest. The 31-year-old goalie dropped to 10-7-2 with a 3.32 GAA and an .898 save percentage in 20 games. Fantasy managers know not to expect too much from Jones, so Friday's poor outing shouldn't come as a surprise. Devan Dubnyk will likely handle the crease in Saturday's rematch with the Coyotes.

Exits Friday's game Simek (undisclosed) left Friday's game against the Coyotes and did not return, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
