San Jose Sharks goaltender Antti Niemi has been confirmed to start Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Kings, CSN Bay Area's Kevin Kurz reports.
Analysis:
No shocker here after backup Alex Stalock manned the crease in the Sharks' last game Monday against the Devils. Niemi has made two previous starts against the Kings in 2014-15, shutting them out in his season debut and allowing three goals on 29 shots in a Dec. 27 tilt.
