One more to go.
The Sharks have reached the conclusion of the regular season, as they'll host the Colorado Avalanche at SAP Center in Game No. 82 Saturday night. They'll get a significant boost in their final game before the playoffs, as Erik Karlsson returns to the lineup after missing the last 17 games with a groin injury.
San Jose (45-27-9) has already locked up the second seed in the Pacific division, but they still have something to play for on Saturday. If they're able to get at least one point, they'll clinch the second-best record in the Western Conference, which would give them home-ice advantage in the conference finals, if they were to make it that far.

Colorado (38-29-14), meanwhile, will also be headed to the postseason, although their first-round opponent has still yet to be determined. They'll be the second Wild Card team in the West unless they beat San Jose and Dallas loses to Chicago in regulation.
