With Yaroslav Askarov returning from an injury, Brossoit will return to the San Jose Barracuda (AHL). The 33-year-old Brossoit played one game for the Sharks during his previous call-up, his first NHL action since the 2023-24 season, but struggled in the outing, allowing six goals on 23 shots (.739 SV%).
With Radko Gudas (lower body) and Pavel Mintyukov (lower body) returning to Anaheim's lineup, Helleson will join Frank Vatrano as a healthy scratch on Monday. The 25-year-old Helleson is averaging 17:15 time-on-ice and has 12 points (2G / 10A) in 54 games this season.
After three straight twenty-goal seasons, Vatrano's production has plummeted this season. The 31-year-old forward has just four goals and four assists through 46 games. He will be a healthy scratch on Monday, along with Drew Helleson, to accommodate the returns of Radko Gudas (lower body) and Pavel Mintyukov (lower body).
Mintyukov did not play in Anaheim's previous game, but he will return to the lineup on Monday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The 22-year-old defenseman is averaging 18:26 time-on-ice and has 20 points (8G / 12A) in 67 games this season.
Husso has had a semi-regular workload in recent weeks and will return to the crease on Monday against the Toronto Maple Leafs for his sixth start in Anaheim's last 14 games. The 31-year-old Finnish goalie has earned his increased workload with serviceable play in the backup position, posting a solid 2.60 GAA and .918 SV% in five games this month (3-2-0). The Ducks enter Monday's contest as -184 home favourites against a Maple Leafs team coming off a one-sided 5-1 loss to the St. Louis Blues.
Mintyukov did not play in Anaheim's previous game, but he could return to the lineup on Monday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The 22-year-old defenseman is averaging 18:26 time-on-ice and has 20 points (8G / 12A) in 67 games this season.
Yaroslav Askarov was excellent on Thursday in his return from a multi-week absence due to a lower-body injury, but he only lasted half the game before exiting with a new, unrelated injury and being replaced by Alex Nedeljkovic. With Askarov sidelined again, Brossoit will be recalled from the San Jose Barracuda (AHL). The 33-year-old Brossoit played one game for the Sharks during his previous call-up, his first NHL action since the 2023-24 season, but struggled in the outing, allowing six goals on 23 shots (.739 SV%).
Terry was a surprise scratch on Thursday, with the Ducks not announcing his absence prior to warmups. Olen Zellweger will take his spot in the lineup as Ian Moore slides up to play forward.
For the third time in the last seven games, the Ducks will turn to Husso to tend the twine when they face the Calgary Flames on Thursday. The 31-year-old Finnish goalie allowed five goals on 29 shots (.828 SV%) in his most recent outing, but salvaged a 6-5 overtime victory over the Buffalo Sabres. He has a 2.81 GAA and .918 SV% in four games this month (2-2-0). The Ducks enter Thursday's contest as -128 road favourites against a Flames team that has been surprisingly competent since losing several key players at the trade deadline, going 6-4-0.
Gaucher was a first-round pick of the Anaheim Ducks in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft that could be poised to make his NHL debut after being recalled on Thursday. The 22-year-old forward has 26 points (12G / 14A) in 57 games this season with the San Diego Gulls (AHL).
Hamblin is an undrafted 26-year-old forward that has spent most of his career in the AHL. In 54 games this season with the Bakerfield Condors (AHL), Hamblin has 37 points (23G / 14A).
Dostal was excellent in his previous outing, saving 29 of 30 shots (.967 SV%) in a 4-1 win over the Utah Mammoth, continuing his winning ways. That said, defensive coverage has been an issue for the Ducks all season, which directly correlates to Dostal's less-than-stellar 3.08 GAA and .884 SV% in March, despite boasting a solid 5-2-1 record. The Ducks enter Tuesday's contest as -178 road favourites against the last-place Vancouver Canucks, who have scored two or fewer goals in five of their last seven games (2-4-1).
With Yaroslav Askarov (lower body) back at practice and seemingly ready to return, the Sharks have reassigned Brossoit to the San Jose Barracuda (AHL). The 33-year-old Brossoit played one game for the Sharks during his call-up, his first NHL action since the 2023-24 season, but struggled in the outing, allowing six goals on 23 shots (.739 SV%).
