— Anaheim Ducks (@AnaheimDucks) January 8, 2026It’s unclear when or how Terry sustained the injury. He completed Tuesday’s 5-2 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers, assisting on both of Anaheim’s goals.
The Denver native is on pace for a career season, with 13 goals and 29 assists for 42 points through 43 games. Last season, he put up 21 goals and 34 assists for 55 points in 77 games.
Terry, 28, was drafted fifth overall out of the USHL by the Ducks in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft. He then played three collegiate seasons for the University of Denver before joining the Anaheim’s organization full-time for the 2018-19 season. He spent his first couple of professional seasons splitting time between the Ducks and the AHL’s San Diego Gulls, becoming a regular NHLer in the 2020-21 season.
He would hit his stride as a pro in the 2021-22 season, registering 37 goals and 30 assists for 67 points in 75 games, while being named an All-Star. The following year, in 2022-23, he notched 23 goals and 38 assists for 61 points in 70 games, and earned another All-Star nod.
Terry is in the third season of a seven-year, $49 million deal with Anaheim.
Halfway through the season, the Ducks find themselves in the heat of a tightly contested Pacific Division. With 45 points through 43 games, they are sixth place in the division but only three points back of the first-placed Vegas Golden Knights.
After taking facing the Hurricanes on Thursday, Anaheim will wrap up a four-game road trip when they play the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday.
