San Jose Sharks forward Cam Lund’s availability for the start of the team’s training camp next week might be in question after he was injured in a fight-filled game against the Anaheim Ducks on Friday night at the Golden State Rookie Faceoff in Irvine.
With just over six minutes left in the third period, Lund headed up ice in the Sharks’ zone and was about to receive a centering pass from Filip Bystedt when a high hit from Ducks defenseman Will Francis laid him out. Lund did not yet have the puck.
Lund, according to the Sharks, is considered day-to-day with an upper-body injury. The Sharks begin training camp on Thursday.
After the questionable hit, defenseman Braden Hache, who split time between Barracuda of the AHL and Wichita of the ECHL last season, stepped in and fought Francis. The scrap was one of five between the Ducks and Sharks as the game featured a combined 76 penalty minutes.

Before his injury, Lund, 21, had two goals in what became a 6-3 Sharks win over the Ducks. He did not play Saturday afternoon against the Los Angeles Kings, who had a four-goal lead after the first period before Kasper Halttunen, Filip Bystedt, and Sam Dickinson scored for the Sharks in the second.
Lund was a second-round pick by the Sharks in 2022 and, after a three-year career at Northeastern, signed an entry-level contract and turned pro in March. In 11 games with the Sharks last season, he had two goals and one assist.
Without Lund, the Sharks dressed 11 forwards and seven defensemen against the Kings, who took a 4-0 lead by the 15:04 mark of the first period.
Halttunen then scored a power play goal off an assist from Michael Misa with 10:41 left in the second, and Bystedt scored 22 seconds later off a pass from Carson Wetsch to cut the Kings’ lead to two.
Defenseman Sam Dickinson then scored a power-play goal, assisted by Collin Graf, with six seconds left in the second period to draw the Sharks within one goal.
