The San Jose Sharks received good injury news on several fronts Sunday.

William Eklund (upper body), Mikael Granlund (lower body) and Matt Benning (lower body), who all missed practice on Friday, all returned on Sunday.

The Sharks took Saturday off.

Head coach Ryan Warsofsky had said that Eklund, Granlund and Benning all had just “little injuries,” and that appears to be the case.

Even better news, there’s a ray of light for Shakir Mukhamadullin (lower body), Yaroslav Askarov (lower body) and Marc-Edouard Vlasic (upper body), who have all been out with day-to-day injuries since the beginning of training camp.
