Fantasy Analysis
Jason Demers only say 3:47 of ice time though and had two minutes in the box for a rough boarding call against LA's Robyn Regher. His return was notable because, like teammate Brent Burns, the Sharks have moved Demers to forward. Could be interesting for future games if the Sharks can stay alive. (Updated 5/24/13).

05/21/2013 22:07 Sharks' Demers Out Again Tuesday
Demers (foot) will not play in Tuesday's Game 4 against the Kings, CSN's Kevin Kurz reports.The Sharks were hoping that Demers would be able to play in their second-round series, but he will remain sidelined for the time being.
Jason Demers will battle Justin Braun for playing time this year. Both have offensive upside, but neither will get many opportunities to show it off in the 6/7 spot. Braun may have the initial edge to start in the top-six, but Demers will be barking at his tail the whole season. The Sharks' defense is so remarkably deep this year. He'll get a chance to play on the second power-play unit (that is, if he earns the job). but with Dan Boyle and Brent Burns as locks to run both units most nights, that ice time will be thin, too. However, don't ignore Demers entirely as there will come a point during the season where he'll go on a little offensive burst. Your team will benefit if you can catch that lightning in a bottle.
