Tyler Toffoli may not join the San Jose Sharks on their upcoming road trip.

That will be a serious blow to a team that’s still trying to make the playoffs. The Sharks have three games on the road next week, at the Nashville Predators, St. Louis Blues, and Columbus Blue Jackets.

Toffoli suffered a lower-body injury against the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday, leaving the game in the first period.

San Jose Sharks head coach Ryan Warsofsky did not offer a timeline for Toffoli’s return.

Also, Vincent Desharnais will miss Saturday’s game at the Philadelphia Flyers with an upper-body injury. Warsofsky called it something ongoing with Desharnais, and didn’t say if Desharnais will travel with the team or not.

San Jose Sharks (32-29-6)

Alex Nedeljkovic will start.

Here’s how the Sharks lined up yesterday at practice.

Kurashev-Celebrini-Smith
Graf-Wennberg-Gaudette
Eklund-Misa-Sherwood
Goodrow-Ostapchuk-Reaves

Orlov-Klingberg
Mukhamadullin-Ferraro
Dickinson-Leddy

Nedeljkovic

Warsofsky indicated that there was a game-time decision up front. If that forward doesn’t play, Pavol Regenda will slide in.

Philadelphia Flyers (33-23-12)

Dan Vladar will start.

Flyers haven’t called anyone up and are most likely running with the same 11-7 lineup again today vs. San Jose. Fourth line center will remain a bit of an adventure with Emil Andrae
