Troy Terry Misses Thursday's Game

Anaheim Ducks right wing Troy Terry (upper body) won't play on Thursday against the Carolina Hurricanes and is day-to-day. Terry has been ever-present on this exciting Ducks squad, posting 42 points (13 goals, 29 assists) in 43 games. Unfortunately, he will have to miss his first contest of the season due to an upper-body injury. Ryan Strome is set to replace Terry on Thursday night. The veteran has had a frustrating campaign in 2025-26, contributing six points (two goals, four assists) in 22 appearances. However, Strome is projected to skate with Alex Killorn and Leo Carlsson, putting him in a good position to make a significant impact.

Radko Gudas on Track to Return Friday

Anaheim Ducks defenseman Radko Gudas (illness) is considered probable for Friday's matchup against the Minnesota Wild. He has sat out two games due to illness. Gudas is projected to replace Drew Helleson in the Ducks' defense, joining Olen Zellweger on the second defensive pairing. Minnesota ranks ninth in hits per 60 minutes this season, making Gudas's return on Friday night a nice boost for the Ducks. The Czech veteran is second on his team with 94 hits and has registered eight points (one goal, seven assists), 35 shots, and 49 blocks across 27 outings.

Frank Vatrano to Miss Six Weeks With Shoulder Injury

Anaheim Ducks forward Frank Vatrano (shoulder) will be out for approximately six weeks, the team announced on Wednesday. Vatrano fractured his shoulder on Dec. 27 against the Los Angeles Kings and sat out a second consecutive contest on Wednesday versus the Tampa Bay Lightning. The six-week timeline indicates that Vatrano won't be ready to return until after the Olympics break, so he will be unavailable for 16 more games. After scoring 80 goals over the previous three campaigns, Vatrano has been largely anonymous on the offensive end in 2025-26, contributing three goals and three assists in 38 contests. Nikita Nesterenko has appeared in both games Vatrano has missed and is expected to remain a regular in the lineup until he returns.

Radko Gudas Expected to Remain Out Wednesday

Anaheim Ducks defenseman Radko Gudas (illness) is expected to sit out a second consecutive game on Wednesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning. The punishing blue-liner is battling an illness and missed Tuesday's practice. Gudas averages close to 3.5 hits per game and has produced eight points (one goal, seven assists) in 27 outings this season. With Gudas out, Pavel Mintyukov made a scoring return to the lineup on Monday night versus the San Jose Sharks. Compared to Gudas, Mintyukov has more offensive upside and has lit the lamp three times in his past seven appearances. Anaheim is also expected to remain without forward Frank Vatrano (upper body) on Wednesday.

Troy Terry Enjoys Three-Point Night Against Sharks

Anaheim Ducks right wing Troy Terry produced two goals and had one assist in Monday's entertaining 5-4 loss to the San Jose Sharks. The Ducks fell 4-1 behind in the contest before attempting a comeback. Terry posted his team's first and last goals, ending a three-game scoreless spell. Over his last six appearances, Terry had managed only one point, so this performance should be a confidence-booster for him. Overall, fantasy managers can be pleased with Terry's contributions this season. He has been scoring nearly a point per game, amassing 12 goals and 28 assists in 39 outings. His 38 points are surpassed only by Leo Carlsson (42) on the Ducks squad.

Leo Carlsson • C • Ducks

Leo Carlsson Available Against Kings

Anaheim Ducks center Leo Carlsson (lower body) will return from a one-game absence on Saturday against the Los Angeles Kings. He missed the final game before the Christmas break due to a lower-body injury. Carlsson will occupy his usual spot as the top-line center and work with the first power-play unit. The young Swedish star has gone scoreless in three appearances, but he's had an excellent campaign overall. Across 36 outings, Carlsson has tallied 17 goals and 41 points. Carlsson totaled three points (one goal, two assists) when Anaheim and Los Angeles faced each other for the first time this season.

Leo Carlsson Won't Play Monday

Anaheim Ducks center Leo Carlsson (lower body) won't play in Monday's contest against the Seattle Kraken and is day-to-day. This will be Anaheim's final contest before the Christmas break, so Carlsson will get a good amount of time to recover from his lower-body injury before the next game on Saturday against the Los Angeles Kings. It has been an incredible season for Carlsson, who has a good chance to surpass his last campaign's scoring total (45 points) before the turn of the year. Across 36 outings, he has produced 41 points (17 goals, 24 assists). Mikael Granlund will move into the top six on Monday and looks like an appealing fantasy option after scoring in three consecutive games.

Cutter Gauthier Scores Twice at MSG

Anaheim Ducks left wing Cutter Gauthier scored two goals in Monday's 4-1 road win against the New York Rangers. With the game tied at one, Gauthier popped up with a power-play goal early in the third period and completed his third multi-goal effort of the season with an empty-netter. On Monday, Gauthier took over the goal-scoring lead in the Ducks camp. He boasts 18 markers for the campaign and has tallied 36 points in 33 appearances. It has been a superb year for Gauthier, although his recent production has been inconsistent. The 21-year-old has finished half of his eight appearances this month scoreless.

Lukas Dostal • G • Ducks

Lukas Dostal Activated From Injured Reserve

Anaheim Ducks goaltender Lukas Dostal (upper body) was activated from Injured Reserve on Friday, making him eligible to return to the lineup for Saturday's meeting with the New Jersey Devils. Dostal has been sidelined for three weeks due to an upper-body injury. Working as Anaheim's No. 1, Dostal has had a fantastic campaign, going 11-5-1. He has logged a 2.81 goals-against average and a .904 save percentage. Ville Husso has filled in for Dostal in the crease, with Petr Mrazek (lower body) unavailable. Should Dostal start on Saturday, he would be returning in a favorable matchup, as New Jersey has managed just 2.90 goals per game this season -- the 11th-lowest average in the league.

Frank Vatrano Makes Early Exit Against Penguins

Anaheim Ducks forward Frank Vatrano was limited to 9:17 of ice time on Tuesday against the Pittsburgh Penguins after a puck struck him in the face. Vatrano has had a tough year, and this is another unfortunate blow for him. After posting at least 40 points in three consecutive seasons, Vatrano is currently only on four points (three goals, one assist) through 30 outings. The Ducks could use Nikita Nesterenko or Jansen Harkins as Vatrano's replacement in the lineup if needed. The team returns to action on Thursday night against the New York Islanders.

Cutter Gauthier Delivers Two Assists Sunday

Anaheim Ducks left wing Cutter Gauthier took on the role of a playmaker in Sunday's 7-1 win over the Chicago Blackhawks, recording two assists. The 21-year-old entered Sunday's contest as Anaheim's leading goal-scorer, but Gauthier focused on other areas against the Blackhawks. Gauthier helped Mason McTavish and Beckett Sennecke on the score sheet, with the first goal coming on the power play. It was Gauthier's fourth multi-point effort in eight games. He is among three Ducks players to average at least a point per game for the season. In 29 appearances, Gauthier has tallied 33 points (16 goals, 17 assists).

Leo Carlsson Nets Two Goals in Blowout Win

Anaheim Ducks center Leo Carlsson had two of the team's goals in Sunday's 7-1 blowout win against the Chicago Blackhawks. Carlsson notched an even-strength goal late in the second period and had a power-play marker early in the third to make it 6-0. The 20-year-old Swedish star returned to the score sheet after finishing each of his previous two outings pointless. Carlsson has been spectacular for the Ducks in 2025-26 and could become only the third player in franchise history to post a 100-point season. Currently, he sits on 38 points (16 goals, 22 assists) through 29 games. Only six players in the league have been more productive than Carlsson.

Beckett Sennecke Notches Two Points in Friday's Win

Anaheim Ducks right wing Beckett Sennecke contributed a goal and an assist in Friday's 4-3 shootout win over the Washington Capitals. In Wednesday's matchup against the Utah Mammoth, Sennecke saw his point streak end at eight games, but he quickly heated up again. The 19-year-old became the third rookie in franchise history to record at least five career multi-point games before his 30th contest. The Toronto-born winger has notched eight goals and 22 points in 28 outings. He leads all rookies in scoring, and Sennecke is in a good position to continue to rack up points, as the Ducks have one of the best offensive records in the league.

Mikael Granlund • C • Ducks

Mikael Granlund Returning From 10-Game Absence Friday

Anaheim Ducks forward Mikael Granlund (lower body) will hop back into the lineup for Friday's tilt against the Washington Capitals. A lower-body injury has kept Granlund on the sidelines for 10 games. The Ducks are expected to use Granlund on the third line next to Frank Vatrano and Ryan Strome, who will re-enter the lineup following a two-game stint as a healthy scratch. Granlund has collected nine points (three goals, six assists) in as many appearances this season. However, his numbers are deceiving, as Granlund had a huge five-point performance against the Boston Bruins on Oct. 23. He has finished five of his nine outings without any points.

Petr Mrazek Out 2-3 Weeks

Anaheim Ducks goaltender Petr Mrazek (lower body) will miss 2-3 weeks. He was initially labeled as day-to-day after Mrazek suffered a lower-body injury on Sunday night against the Chicago Blackhawks. Lukas Dostal (upper body) will also be on the shelf for at least 1-2 more weeks, meaning Anaheim must lean on Ville Husso in the crease. The Finnish netminder is penciled in for his second consecutive start on Wednesday against the Utah Mammoth. On Monday night, Husso beat his former team, the St. Louis Blues, 4-1 with 21 saves. He owns a 2-1-0 record for the season but has saved only 44 of 50 shots, giving him a save percentage of .880.

Petr Mrazek Considered Day-to-Day

Anaheim Ducks goaltender Petr Mrazek (lower body) is considered day-to-day, Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune reports. The veteran netminder was injured in Sunday's loss to the Chicago Blackhawks, but he isn't expected to be out long-term. That's great news for the Ducks, who have lost Lukas Dostal (upper body) for several weeks. Ville Husso started Monday's 4-1 win over the St. Louis Blues, while Vyacheslav Buteyets has been brought up from the AHL to add depth in the goalie department. It's possible the team won't need Buteyets' services if Mrazek heals quickly. Anaheim's next game is scheduled for Wednesday against the Utah Mammoth.

Petr Mrazek • G • Ducks

Petr Mrazek Injured in Sunday's Loss

Anaheim Ducks goaltender Petr Mrazek (undisclosed) missed the end of Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Chicago Blackhawks. Ville Husso replaced Mrazek after he sustained an undisclosed injury. Mrazek coughed up a three-goal lead in the contest, saving 23 of 26 shots. Anaheim recently lost its starting netminder, Lukas Dostal (upper body), for a few weeks, so the team will be facing an injury crisis in the crease if Mrazek has to miss significant time. The Czech veteran holds a 3-3-0 record for the season, allowing 3.69 goals with a .876 save percentage.

Lukas Dostal • G • Ducks

Lukas Dostal Ruled Out for 2-3 Weeks

Anaheim Ducks goaltender Lukas Dostal (upper body) will miss 2-3 weeks, the team announced Friday. He sat out a second consecutive game when the Ducks hosted the Los Angeles Kings. Ville Husso made his first start of the season, stopping 23 of 27 shots in a 5-4 shootout victory. Husso is set to share the goaltending duties with Petr Mrazek until Dostal returns. Mrazek is 3-3-0 for the campaign and holds a .881 save percentage with a 3.69 goals-against average. Both backups have struggled for Anaheim, but the team's hot offense may still keep them in the win column in the upcoming games. The Ducks have averaged 3.63 goals per game, ranking second in the league, only behind the Colorado Avalanche (4.00).

Lukas Dostal • G • Ducks

Lukas Dostal Out Wednesday Night

Anaheim Ducks goaltender Lukas Dostal (upper body) won't be available for Wednesday's contest against the Vancouver Canucks. He is nursing an upper-body injury and is considered day-to-day. Anaheim's No. 1 goaltender is having an outstanding campaign, sitting on an 11-5-1 record. He has logged a 2.81 goals-against average with a .904 save percentage. With Dostal out of commission, the Ducks will turn to Petr Mrazek on Wednesday night. Mrazek also holds a winning record at 3-2-0, but he is allowing nearly four goals a night this season (3.61) and holds a lowly .886 save percentage. Ville Husso, who was recalled from the AHL on Wednesday, will serve as Mrazek's backup.

Mikael Granlund • C • Ducks

Mikael Granlund Remains Out Wednesday

Anaheim Ducks forward Mikael Granlund (lower body) will remain out on Wednesday night against the Boston Bruins. He recently returned to the lineup from a lower-body injury but managed to play in only one game before landing back on the shelf. Granlund erupted for five points in this season's first meeting with the Bruins. Overall, he has tallied nine points (three goals, six assists) in nine appearances. Ryan Poehling (upper body) won't be ready to return on Wednesday either. However, even with the two sidelined, Anaheim is having a good campaign, ranking third in the league with a 3.63 goals-for average. Leo Carlsson, Cutter Gauthier, and Troy Terry are all averaging over a point per game.
