Ducks Rule Out Lukáš Dostál for 2–3 Weeks With Upper-Body Injury

Petr Mrázek assumes the workload with recalled Ville Husso starting today.

Overview

  • Anaheim announced the update Friday, confirming Dostál’s upper-body injury will sideline him for two to three weeks.
  • Based on the team’s timeline, he is expected to miss roughly 10 games and has not been placed on injured reserve.
  • With their starter out, the Ducks turn to Petr Mrázek while Ville Husso, recalled Wednesday, was slated to start against Los Angeles.
  • The team has not disclosed the cause of the injury, which followed a full 4-3 overtime win over Vegas, after initially listing him day-to-day.
  • Dostál’s early-season form has driven Anaheim’s strong start, posting an 11-5-1 record, a .904 save percentage and 10 five-on-five goals saved above expected.
