Hertl back and ready for the playoffs April 15, 2014

After spending most of the year on the injury list, winger Tomas Hertl is looking forward to a potentially long playoff run with the San Jose Sharks. Out since mid-December with a knee injury, the product of Praha, Czech Republic was one of the top rookies through the first 2 months of the year, registering 15 goals and 10 assists in 35 games. He will now look to be a difference-maker for the Sharks, who begin their playoff campaign on Thursday against the Los Angeles Kings.
