Status report
Neither team held a morning skate. … Sharks coach Ryan Warsofsky said he will consider line changes following a 5-2 loss to the Edmonton Oilers on Wednesday. …. Gauthier, a forward, and Gudas, a defenseman, did not practice Wednesday; each likely will miss his fifth straight game. … The Ducks used 10 forwards and eight defensemen in a 5-0 loss to the Nashville Predators on Tuesday, but Vatrano practiced on the third line Wednesday after being scratched against the Predators. … Zellweger, a defenseman who played on the fourth line against Nashville, practiced on the top line on Wednesday in place of Kreider, who took a maintenance day.
