The return of star edge forwardis missing from Todd Payten’s first-choice side, and with a home crowd behind them we’re tipping the week off and desperation mentality to be enough to get one over the Sharks.It’s at this point in the season that the teams in contention for the title start beating up on those no longer in the race.
