SAN JOSE, Calif. -- The San Jose Sharks will begin the second round of the playoffs somewhat short-handed after losing forward Adam Burish to an undisclosed upper-body injury. Burish got hurt during the teams 4-3 overtime win over the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday night that wrapped up the first playoff sweep in franchise history. Burish did not return to that game after being slashed by Vancouvers Alexander Edler late in the second period. Burishs right hand was wrapped in the dressing room after the game. Despite being a fourth-line player who had just one goal and two assists, Burish made key contributions as one of the teams more physical players and as a reliable penalty killer. He played the third most minutes of any San Jose forward killing penalties in the regular season. "Its a tough loss," defenceman Dan Boyle said. "Hes one of those guys who doesnt necessarily end up on the score sheet but having played against him he gets under other guys skin. He certainly got under mine when he was in Chicago. You kind of need that going forward. When the top guys are thinking about certain players versus what they have to do on the ice, thats a bonus for us." Burish also brings a strong locker room presence based in part on his experience from winning the Stanley Cup with the Blackhawks in 2010. Coach Todd McLellan expects Burish to maintain that role even as he is sidelined by the injury. "Were definitely going to miss him out there but I think hes a type of player that he will make sure that hes around and talk to players and keeping everybody focused in the right direction," forward Patrick Marleau said. "It will be great to have that part still. But on the ice being a penalty killer, faceoff guy. Its going to be an opportunity for other guys to step up and try to fill that void." The injury news was better on other fronts for the Sharks as forward Marty Havlat took part in a light skate for the first time since leaving Game 1 of the Vancouver series with an injury. Havlat said he has no timetable for a possible return but McLellan was encouraged by the progress he has made. The injury to Burish opens up a forward spot, putting more importance on Havlats possible return. "This is the time that we dream of, the playoffs," he said. "The situation is what it is. Im just trying to get back as soon as possible." Defenceman Jason Demers also skated as he tries to return from a lower-body injury that has caused him to miss the final four games of the regular season and all four playoff games. Scott Hannan, acquired at the trade deadline from Nashville, has filled in admirably in the playoffs, forming a physical defensive pairing with Brad Stuart. With the second round not starting until next week, Havlat and Demers have time to recover and possibly make it back into the lineup. The time off is also welcome for players who accumulated plenty of bumps and bruises during the regular season and first-round matchup with the Canucks. Only a handful of players even skated Thursday as McLellan wanted to give his regulars a couple of days to clear their minds before turning their focus to the next round. The full team will plan to practice the next three days, by which time the Sharks could know their opponent and schedule for the second round. "The coaches Im sure are going to do a great job," Hannan said. "We as players got to come in and bring it in practice. You got to keep your game at the highest level and treat it that way in practice when youre out there. Just play hard." McLellan has assigned one coach to prepare for each of the potential second-round opponents: Chicago, St. Louis, Los Angeles and Detroit. The players wont start looking at video until that is determined. The Sharks had a similar layoff three years ago when they had a seven-day break between beating Detroit in five games in the second round and the start of the conference finals against Chicago. San Jose was swept in that series. "We would whine if we only had one day," McLellan said. "Now when we have five, people are looking for reasons for why it might not work. Its our job to make it work. Its our job to get prepared and be ready to play. The only answer to that question will be after Game 1, 2 or 3."

Rangpur Riders 154 for 5 (Shahzad 48, Mithun 38, Perera 2-26) beat Barisal Bulls 125 (Malan 30, Dawson 2-11, Gazi 2-12) by 29 runsScorecard and ball-by-ball detailsSix Rangpur Riders bowlers were among the wickets as they strangled Barisal Bulls batting to win by 29 runs in Mirpur. Notching up their first win in four matches, Rangpur moved to third while Barisal ended their season in last place.Defending 154, Rangpurs bowlers never let Barisal settle. Sohag Gazi struck in the first over, removing Rayad Emrit, who had been promoted to open the innings, and dismissing Mushfiqur Rahim in his next over, before Naeem Islam sent back a dangerous-looking Jeevan Mendis, whose five-ball stay included two sixes.Fazle Mahmud added 39 with the opener Dawid Malan before he was dismissed on 21 by Shahid Afridis third ball of the match, leaving Barisal 68 for 4. Four balls later, Malan fell for 30 to Anwar Ali with the teams score unchanged. Rangpur had sent back half of Barisals batting within their first ten overs. Thisara Perera looked to hit out, and struck two sixes as he attempted to chase down a now improbable target before Afridi had him caught by Naeem Islam for a 17-ball 24.Liam Dawson then had Shahriar Nafees top-edging to short third-man before pinning Taijul Islam plumb in front with a yorker to finish with figures of 2 for 11. Rubel Hossain, wicketless till then, ended the match with successive, inch-perfect yorkers - the second one a slower version of the first - to rattle the stumps of Monir Hossain and Kamrul Islam Rabbi.ddddddddddddIn the first innings, Rangpurs 154 could best be described as a patchy performance. Opener Mohammad Shahzad scored a 40-ball 48 and added 76 for the second wicket with Mohammad Mithun after Soumya Sarkar fell for 17. Shahzads innings, which contained four fours and one six, ended in the fifteenth over after he missed a full ball from Emrit that struck him flush on the pad.The 63-ball partnership ended with the team 105 for 2, bringing Afridi to the crease. He played a typical three-ball innings: taking a single, hitting a six - a short ball dispatched straight over the bowler - and holing out to mid-off, off Kamrul. The pacer was expensive - although he took two crucial wickets - going at an economy rate of 9.75 in his four overs.Just as Rangpur seemed set to post a really big total, Mithun, who made a controlled 41-ball 38 attempted a lofted shot off Perera but failed to connect cleanly, only managing to hit it as far as deep midwicket. Perera then removed Anwar Ali as well, before Ziaur Rahman and Dawson added 16 in the last over - including a last-ball six - to take Rangpur to 154.Rangpur Riders have their future in their own hands. A win in their last match against Comilla Victorians assures them of a semi-final spot, while a loss will leave them waiting anxiously on other results to know their fate. ' ' '
