Mason McTavish Labeled As Day-To-Day With An Upper-Body Injury
Anaheim Ducks center Mason McTavish (upper body) is considered day-to-day. He missed his first game of the season on Sunday against Columbus. McTavish was also unavailable for practice on Saturday, and according to Ducks head coach Greg Cronin, the 21-year-old centerman is "dealing with some tightness." Before getting hurt, McTavish had just built up good momentum with a three-game point streak. He has totaled eight points (two goals, six assists) in 13 appearances for the season. Isac Lundestrom has a chance to play a larger role with McTavish out of the lineup. However, he is not a viable fantasy option.
Anaheim Ducks forward Mason McTavish (knee) could be out for the rest of the season. He has missed three games and Anaheim has three more to come.

McTavish took part in the morning skate but could remain out on Friday, with Ducks head coach Greg Cronin also unsure if McTavish will play against the Stars. The 21-year-old, who sits on 40 points (17 goals, 23 assists) through 52 appearances, has been out for two games.
