Sharks call up veteran Micheal Haley from Worcester

SAN JOSE - With rugged forwards John Scott and Mike Brown both out of the lineup, the Sharks are adding toughness by calling forward Micheal Haley up from their Worcester development team.

Haley, 28, has 60 penalty minutes in 27 games with Worcester, but also has chipped in with 10 goals and three assists.

A 5-foot-10, 204-pounder, Haley has played in 52 NHL games with both New York teams - 43 as an Islander and nine as a Ranger. In those games he registered three points and 163 penalty minutes.

He was signed by San Jose as a free agent in the off-season.

Scott will be serving the first of his four-game suspension tonight when the Sharks resume action against the Los Angeles Kings. Scott was suspended by the NHL Department of Player Safety for punching Anaheim’s Tim Jackman.

Brown is out for an extended period of time with a right leg injury.
