Hampus Lindholm News

It seems as if the Ducks will rest some of their key defensemen down the stretch. First it was Cam Fowler, then James Wisniewski and this afternoon it will be Lindholm. He will be replaced by Wisniewski who sat on Thursday. Expect him to be back in the lineup on Sunday.

Lindholm missed Wednesday’s game against the Lightning, but said that he needed some rest. He will be back in the lineup tonight in Calgary. Lindholm will be paired with Francois Beauchemin. He has 25 points (5G / 20A) and a plus-14 rating in 55 games this season.

Lindholm was listed as a game-time decision, but will miss his second game in the last four. With Lindholm and Sami Vatanen both out, Josh Manson and Eric Brewer will enter the lineup.

Lindholm, who has been in the lineup for the last two games, apparently tweaked his ankle again and will be a game-time decision tonight.
