Clowe back after missing 65 games: RW Ryane Clowe returned to the Sharks' lineup Sunday against the Coyotes for the first time since incurring a right knee injury that required surgery in October. Clowe missed 65 games, but the bruising power forward hopes to be at full strength for the postseason -- and he looked good in his first appearance. Clowe picked up an assist on Joe Thornton's opening goal after starting on a line with Milan Michalek. He finished at plus-1 in 15:06 of ice time. (Updated 03/30/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Clowe, in his second full season with the Sharks, had three goals and three assists in 11 games this season before tearing several ligaments in his knee on Oct. 27. He earned a regular job in San Jose last season with career highs of 16 goals, 18 assists and 78 penalty minutes in just 58 games. The Newfoundland native is a fan favorite for his hard-nosed style, and his presence has been missed on San Jose's power play. However, his return is a little too late in most Fantasy leagues. When healthy, he can be a No. 5 or No. 6 Fantasy forward. (Updated 03/30/2008).
