Recalled from AHL on Monday, San Jose Sharks winger Collin Graf scores first NHL goal against the Montreal Canadiens

Poturalski, 31, is the American Hockey League’s leading scorer with 41 points in 45 games with the Barracuda this season. He and goalie Yaroslav Askarov represented the Barracuda in the AHL All-Star Classic on Sunday and Monday in Palm Desert.

The fears that the Montreal Canadiens were losing their energy heading into the Four Nations break were well founded. Montreal had five straight losses heading into their contest in San Jose on Tuesday night.

Including this season, he has been one of the best veteran forwards in the world for those not currently rostered in the NHL.

The San Jose Sharks have recalled the leading scorer in the American Hockey League ahead of their game against the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday.
