Granlund exited Finland's Bronze Medal victory over Slovakia late in the third period due to an upper-body injury and will be sidelined as Anaheim returns to action on Wednesday against the Edmonton Oilers. The 33-year-old Granlund has had an up-and-down first season with Anaheim, but was productive heading into the Olympic break, with seven points (3G / 4A) in his last six games.
Granlund has had trouble finding his groove with his new team, missing two multi-week stints due to injuries, but is set to return to the lineup on Friday against the Washington Capitals. Despite his lack of consistency in the lineup, the 33-year-old Granlund is off to a solid start with nine points (3G / 6A) in nine games.

Granlund had a slow start to his Ducks' career, with only three points in his first six games before having a massive five-point game (2G / 3A) in game seven. However, any momentum he had was halted, as he was injured in his following game and has been sidelined for eight consecutive games since. He returns to the lineup on Thursday against the Detroit Red Wings.

After a five-point effort last Thursday (2G / 3A), Granlund suffered a lower-body injury in his next game, exiting the contest after only 6:07 time-on-ice. The 33-year-old Finnish forward is in his first season with the Ducks and is expected to be sidelined for several weeks.
The Dallas Stars were reportedly interested in bringing Granlund back after meshing with the team after joining before the trade deadline. However, the Stars were not able to match the $7 million AAV, three-year contract from the Anaheim Ducks. Granlund provides some depth at the center position after losing Trevor Zegras in a trade last week. The 33-year-old Granlund had 66 points (22G / 44A) in 80 games last season.
Granlund is in the final year of a four-year, $5.0M AAV deal. The veteran forward is having an outstanding season, recording 15 goals and 30 assist (45 points) in 52 games with the Sharks. He will provide depth in the Stars' middle-6, which was lacking a little bit following the injury to Tyler Seguin.
