Olle Eriksson Ek - Sent to AHL Eriksson Ek was sent to AHL San Diego on Thursday.
Impact The netminder was recalled from the minors Wednesday but was not needed. Eriksson Ek has yet to make his NHL debut as the Ducks have used him as a backup on eight occasions. He is 2-13-0 with a 4.81 GAA and .852 save percentage with San Diego this season.

Brock McGinn - Leaves games with upper-body injury McGinn (upper body) won't return to Wednesday's game versus the Oilers.
Impact McGinn logged one hit in 5:03 of ice time in the contest. The specifics of his injury aren't known, so it's unclear if he'll be ready to play Saturday in Arizona.
APRIL 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Troy Terry - Scores in return Terry scored a goal on six shots and went minus-2 in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers.
Impact Terry tallied the Ducks' lone goal in his first game after missing the last four contests while awaiting the birth of his child. It's unclear if he's become a father yet -- if not, he may skip Saturday's game in Arizona to remain with his family, but the Ducks close out the season with three games at home. Terry has 22 tallies, 57 points, 180 shots on net and a minus-10 rating through 67 appearances.
APRIL 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Lukas Dostal - Falls to Oilers Dostal allowed two goals on 32 shots in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers. The third goal was an empty-netter.
Impact Dostal has lost his last four starts. The 22-year-old has just one win in seven appearances since the beginning of March. He's at 4-9-2 with a 3.77 GAA and a .901 save percentage through 17 outings this season. If John Gibson (illness) is out for Saturday's game versus the Coyotes, Dostal would likely draw another start.
APRIL 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Simon Benoit - Puts up assist Benoit logged an assist in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers.
Impact Benoit ended an eight-game point drought with the helper. The 24-year-old defenseman is up to 10 points, 78 shots on net, 207 hits, 124 blocked shots, 58 PIM and a minus-29 rating through 74 appearances. He should close out the year in a regular bottom-four role, adding a physical presence to the Ducks' lineup.
APRIL 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Adam Henrique - Grabs helper in return Henrique notched an assist and went minus-2 in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers.
Impact Henrique missed 19 games with a knee injury. He was able to log 15:04 of ice time in his return while filling a top-six role, and he had the secondary helper on Troy Terry's third-period tally. Henrique had failed to record a point over the previous five contests before his injury. He's still put together a solid campaign with 19 goals, 15 helpers, 122 shots on net and a minus-8 rating through 58 outings.
APRIL 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jayson Megna - Stuck in part-time role Megna has played in just six of 17 games since the start of March.
Impact Megna hasn't done much with that limited playing time, logging one goal and a minus-6 rating in that span. The 33-year-old forward could fill in if Brock McGinn (upper body) can't play Saturday versus the Coyotes, but Brett Leason, Nikita Nesterenko and Sam Carrick are also all in contention to step into the lineup. Megnas has seven points and a minus-21 rating through 53 appearances between the Ducks and the Avalanche this season.
APRIL 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Nathan Beaulieu - Still quiet on offense Beaulieu has gone 26 games without a point.
Impact Beaulieu's place in the lineup has stabilized as injuries have piled up throughout the year, but he's rarely contributed on offense. His last point was an assist versus the Sabres on Jan. 21. The 30-year-old defenseman is at four assists, a minus-24 rating, 33 shots on net, 46 hits, 76 blocked shots and 37 PIM while logging bottom-four minutes.
APRIL 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Adam Henrique - Lifted from IR Henrique (knee) was activated from injured reserve Wednesday.
Impact Henrique has been getting closer to a return over the last week, and it appears he's set to get back in action versus the Oilers on Wednesday. The 33-year-old should retake a top-six role with power-play time after missing 19 contests.
APRIL 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Olle Eriksson Ek - Up with Ducks Eriksson Ek was summoned by Anaheim on Wednesday, per Derek Lee of The Sporting Tribune.
Impact Eriksson Ek has a 4.81 GAA and an .852 save percentage in 20 AHL games with San Diego this season. The 23-year-old hasn't made his NHL debut yet. This might be a precautionary move in case John Gibson (lower body) ends up being unavailable for Wednesday's contest versus Edmonton.
APRIL 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
John Gibson - Questionable Wednesday Gibson's (lower body) status for Wednesday's game is unclear, Derek Lee of The Sporting Tribune reports.
Impact Gibson left Saturday's contest against Edmonton because of the injury, but he then served as the backup Sunday and took part in Tuesday's practice. However, Anaheim called up goaltender Olle Eriksson Ek on Wednesday, which might be an indication that Gibson's availability is in doubt. The 29-year-old goaltender has a 14-30-8 record, 3.99 GAA and .899 save percentage in 52 outings this season.
APRIL 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
John Gibson - Won't dress Wednesday Gibson (lower body) won't suit up for Wednesday's game versus the Oilers, Eric Stephens of The Athletic reports.
Impact Gibson was able to back up Lukas Dostal on Sunday, but it appears the injury Gibson suffered Saturday in Edmonton has popped back up. It's unclear if he'll be ready to go for a weekend back-to-back when the Ducks visit the Coyotes on Saturday before hosting the Avalanche on Sunday.
APRIL 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Lukas Dostal - Starting Wednesday Dostal will guard the home goal versus the Oilers on Wednesday, Eric Stephens of The Athletic reports.
Impact Dostal will look to snap his three-game losing streak, with his last win coming March 17 versus the Blue Jackets. The Oilers' offense against the Ducks' defense is a massive mismatch, but Dostal's season high in saves came in a game versus the Oilers on Dec. 17 when he stopped 46 of 49 shots in a surprising win.
APRIL 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
John Gibson - Out due to illness Gibson is not suffering from a lower-body injury, but instead is sidelined by an illness for Wednesday's game versus the Oilers.
Impact It's encouraging that Gibson's injury from Saturday hasn't resurfaced, though he'll still be out for this tough matchup. It's unclear if he'll be healthy enough to suit up for Saturday's game in Arizona.
