Radko Gudas - Supplies assist in loss Gudas notched an assist, four hits and two PIM in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact Gudas has earned three helpers over his last four games. The 34-year-old defenseman has seen his ice time drop since the Ducks traded for Jacob Trouba -- the two blueliners play a largely similar game, though Trouba has more scoring potential. Gudas is at six helpers, 29 shots on net, 40 PIM, 72 blocked shots, 106 hits and a minus-3 rating over 33 appearances this season.

Robby Fabbri - Contributes helper Monday Fabbri notched an assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact Fabbri has five points over six games since he returned from a knee surgery. The 28-year-old winger is clicking with Mason McTavish on the third line, giving the Ducks a bit more scoring depth. Fabbri is up to seven points, 25 shots on net, 35 hits, 14 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 20 appearances this season. He's not exactly known for his physical play, and his offense is fine for his role, but it won't be enough to win over many fantasy managers.

Mason McTavish - Nets lone goal in loss McTavish scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact McTavish has a goal and an assist over the last two games. The 21-year-old center is up to four goals, 10 helpers, 48 shots on net, 24 hits, 18 PIM and a minus-7 rating through 27 appearances this season. He continues to add some depth scoring from a third-line role, but it's likely too little to make him a major factor in fantasy.

Lukas Dostal - Takes loss in relief appearance Dostal stopped 19 of 22 shots in relief of John Gibson (upper body) in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact Gibson exited late in the first period after taking a stick in the face. That drew a penalty, but Dostal allowed a shorthanded goal to Tanner Pearson to open the scoring. The Golden Knights would add another two goals in the third to send Dostal to the loss, his first in three outings. The 24-year-old netminder is now 8-9-3 with a 2.77 GAA and a .915 save percentage over 20 appearances this season. Dostal has done well to keep the Ducks competitive, but it's unclear if Gibson's injury will force him to miss additional time. Anaheim exits the holiday break by hosting the Flyers on Saturday and the Oilers on Sunday.

Brock McGinn - Suffers injury Monday McGinn (lower body) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's contest against the Golden Knights.

Impact McGinn went to the locker room early in the first period and did not return. The left-shot winger grabbed his knee after throwing a hit along the boards, per Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune. McGinn should benefit from four days off before Anaheim's next game against the Flyers on Saturday.

John Gibson - Injured in Vegas Gibson (upper body) won't return to Monday's game against the Golden Knights.

Impact Gibson exited the contest in the first period after taking a stick to the face and was subsequently replaced in goal by Lukas Dostal. Gibson turned aside all 11 shots that he faced before departing. The 31-year-old should be considered day-to-day ahead of Saturday's home matchup against Philadelphia.

Leo Carlsson - In Monday's lineup Carlsson (undisclosed) will be available for Monday's game against the Golden Knights, per Derek Lee of The Hockey News.

Impact Carlsson was injured in Sunday's 5-4 shootout win over Utah, but he appears to be no worse for wear ahead of Monday's divisional contest. The 19-year-old will slot in on the second line and No. 2 power-play unit. Carlsson has produced seven goals and five assists through 26 games in 2024-25.

Jansen Harkins - Nabs assist Sunday Harkins provided an assist and two hits in Sunday's 5-4 shootout win over Utah.

Impact Harkins has just two helpers to go with 26 hits and eight PIM over 10 games in December, but it's encouraging he's been a steady part of the lineup. He's been a fixture on the fourth line in that time and has little chance of being promoted to a more scoring-friendly spot. The 27-year-old has three assists, 52 hits, 14 blocked shots, 12 PIM and 11 shots on net through 19 outings overall.

Mason McTavish - Sends assist in shootout win McTavish recorded an assist, two shots on goal, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 5-4 shootout win over Utah.

Impact McTavish set up a Robby Fabbri goal in the first period. In the shootout, McTavish's tally was the one that gave the Ducks the win. The 21-year-old center has been alright on offense with four points over 10 outings in December, though he's mostly played in a bottom-six role. He could move up if Leo Carlsson (undisclosed) misses time after exiting Sunday's game early. McTavish is at 13 points, 45 shots on net, 23 hits, 18 PIM and a minus-7 rating through 26 appearances this season.

Brett Leason - Ties game on power play Leason scored a power-play goal on two shots in Sunday's 5-4 shootout win over Utah.

Impact Leason had been a healthy scratch for the prior two contests. He returned to action in a fourth-line role and snapped an eight-game goal drought with the game-tying tally in the third period. Leason has four goals, 11 points, 41 shots on net, 28 hits and a plus-2 rating through 25 appearances. He's averaged 51 seconds per game on the power play this year, but he was out of the mix for time in that situation just before his time in the press box. Without a more prominent spot in the lineup, he lacks upside in most fantasy formats.

Isac Lundestrom - Scores in shootout win Lundestrom scored a goal and blocked two shots in Sunday's 5-4 shootout win over Utah.

Impact Lundestrom set the Ducks on the comeback trail with his tally midway through the second period. The 25-year-old had gone 10 games without a point prior to Sunday, though he's maintained steady usage in a bottom-six role as a defensive center. For the season, he has four goals, two assists, 30 shots on net, 20 hits, 32 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 30 appearances.

Leo Carlsson - Dealing with unspecified injury Carlsson is dealing with an unspecified injury, and his status for Monday's game against the Golden Knights is unclear, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Carlsson exited Sunday's win over Utah after going hard into the boards, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be able to suit up in the second half of the back-to-back set. Lee notes that the expectation is that Carlsson won't play Monday, which would likely lead to Ross Johnston entering the lineup for the Ducks' final game before the NHL's Christmas break.

Cutter Gauthier - Two helpers in win Sunday Gauthier recorded two assists, including one on the power play, in Sunday's 5-4 shootout win over Utah.

Impact Gauthier ended a four-game pointless streak with his two helpers Sunday, and this was the first time he set up a goal since a 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights on Dec. 4. Gauthier is a 20-year-old prospect with tons of potential and is showing it in his first full season with the Ducks. He's up to 14 points (four goals, 10 assists) in 32 games so far.

John Gibson - Set to start against Vegas Gibson is expected to tend the twine for Monday's road game against the Golden Knights, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Ducks are playing the second half of a back-to-back set Monday, so Gibson will be in the net against the Golden Knights after Lukas Dostal started Sunday against Utah. Gibson will have a tough test ahead of the Christmas break, as Vegas is tied for fifth in the league with 3.52 goals per game.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Robby Fabbri - Scores twice in shootout win Fabbri scored two goals and took three shots in Sunday's 5-4 shootout win over Utah.

Impact Fabbri doubled his season tally with this brace Sunday, and this two-goal outing also ended a five-game stretch in which he couldn't find the back of the net. Fabbri has six points (four goals, two assists) in 19 appearances, but his bottom-six role should conspire against his fantasy upside.

Olen Zellweger - Two assists Sunday Zellweger delivered two assists, including one on the power play, in Sunday's 5-4 shootout win over Utah.

Impact Zellweger snapped a 10-game pointless streak Sunday by setting up two of the team's four goals. The 21-year-old is already posting better numbers compared to the ones he delivered as a rookie, as he's up to 12 points (four goals, eight helpers) in 30 games. He should continue to find opportunities to produce from the Ducks' blueline, especially if he remains a member of the power play units.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Lukas Dostal - Earns win in high-scoring affair Dostal stopped 21 of 25 shots in Sunday's 5-4 win over Utah.

Impact Dostal might have secured the win, but he didn't look at his best between the pipes Sunday. From a statistical perspective, this was the second-worst save percentage Dostal has delivered in a game in 2024-25, and it was also the fifth time he registered a save percentage below the .870 range. That said, Dostal has looked decent in recent weeks. He's made five starts since the beginning of December, going 3-1-1 with a 2.68 GAA and a .895 save percentage in that span.
