Sturm (upper body) won't play Saturday against the Penguins, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.
Sturm will miss his first game this season after suffering an injury in Thursday's loss to the Rangers with an injury. The 29-year-old center has three goals and six points through 18 games in 2024-25. Klim Kostin will enter the Sharks' lineup because of Sturm's absence.
