Kings"},"content":{"rendered":"

SAN JOSE \u2013 San Jose Sharks prospect winger Cam Lund <\/a>was still being evaluated, and his availability for the start of training camp next week remained in question Sunday after he sustained an upper-body injury the night before in a Rookie Faceoff game<\/a> against the Los Angeles Kings.<\/p>\n

Lund was injured on a hit by Kings prospect defenseman Jared Woolley during the first period of Saturday\u2019s game at Tech CU Arena. Lund left the game briefly, returned shortly after to test the injury, but did not play the final two periods as the Sharks went on to a fight-filled 8-1 win.<\/a><\/p>\n

Barracuda coach John McCarthy said Sunday morning that Lund, 22, was still being examined and that he would not play in that night\u2019s game against the Utah Mammoth. The Sharks begin their main camp on Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re still kind of looking at him,\u201d and determining how long he\u2019ll be out, McCarthy said. \u201cSo once they finish their analysis, we\u2019ll know.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lund, an AHL All-Star in 2026,<\/a> suffered a season-ending injury in a game with the Barracuda last February when he toe-picked on the ice and fell hard into the boards. He was playing his best hockey of the season and finished his first full year as a professional with 25 points in 37 games.<\/p>\n

Lund was drafted in the second round, 34th overall, by the Sharks in 2022. After three seasons with Northeastern University, he signed an entry-level deal with the Sharks in March 2021 and finished that year with three points in 11 NHL games.<\/p>\n

In the third period of Saturday\u2019s game, San Jose winger Quentin Musty, feeling Woolley had been running around too much with other hits on Ivar Stenberg and Michael Misa \u2014 two players who will likely be in the NHL to start the season \u2014 dropped the gloves and fought the 6-foot-5, 215-pound Kings defenseman.<\/p>\n

\u201c(Fighting is) not something I\u2019m trained to do,\u201d said the 6-foot-2 Musty, who had three career fights<\/a> in four seasons in the OHL. \u201cThose guys all NHL guys, and (Woolley\u2019s) not going to come out here and touch those guys or try and hurt those guys. Like I said, it\u2019s not something that I\u2019m here to do. I think I\u2019m more of a skilled forward, but anytime your teammates are getting roughed up like that, that\u2019s the time I\u2019ll step in and fight.<\/p>\n

\u201cKind of started a war out there, but it\u2019s the right thing to do when they\u2019re going at guys like that.\u201d<\/p>\n

The two teams on Saturday combined for 10 fighting majors and 81 penalty minutes. Carson Wetsch, Andre Gasseau, and Stenberg had two goals each in the win.<\/p>\n

Musty and Lund, drafted one year apart by the Sharks, have become good friends, and they started Saturday\u2019s game on the same line.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope it\u2019s not major,\u201d Musty said of Lund\u2019s injury. \u201cObviously, it\u2019s tough to see a guy go down like that. I lived with him last year. We got very close, and I love him as a teammate, love him as a friend. Tough to see him go down like that. But that was one of the main reasons for the fight, and just trying to defend him that way. Just be there as a friend for him.\u201d<\/p>\n
