Sam Colangelo Expected To Return To Action Wednesday
Anaheim Ducks right wing Sam Colangelo (upper body) has been cleared for action and is expected to rejoin the lineup on Wednesday against the Boston Bruins. He has missed five games due to an upper-body injury. Before he got hurt, Colangelo had been heating up, averaging a point per game over a six-game stretch. He also had a four-game goal streak during that time. The 23-year-old from Stoneham, Massachusetts, has recorded six goals and seven points overall in 20 games this season. Anaheim will use Colangelo on the fourth line during Wednesday's game, but he is also set to skate with the first power-play unit. Brett Leason will come out of the lineup.
Sam Colangelo Deemed Day-To-Day With An Upper-Body Injury
Anaheim Ducks right wing Sam Colangelo (upper body) will exit the lineup for Friday's contest against the Nashville Predators and is considered day-to-day. He has sustained an upper-body injury after turning heads last week with a four-game goal streak. The 23-year-old became only the third rookie in franchise history to have a goal streak of at least four games. For the season, Colangelo has posted six goals and seven points in 20 games. Ross Johnston (upper body) is also set to miss Friday's action. Jansen Harkins and Nikita Nesterenko will step in for the injured forwards. Neither player holds any fantasy value.
