Lukas Dostal - Starting in Seattle Dostal will guard the road goal versus the Kraken on Thursday, Allyson Ballard of Davy Jones' Locker Room reports.

Impact Dostal will get the second game of the Ducks' two-game set in Seattle. John Gibson was on the receiving end of a 4-0 shutout loss on Tuesday. Dostal is just 1-3-1 over his last six appearances with 16 goals allowed on 138 shots in that span, though the Kraken's offense is hardly a threatening one.

John Gibson - No help in loss Gibson gave up four goals on 36 shots in Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Kraken.

Impact The duo of Matty Beniers and Eeli Tolvanen each earned three points, while Gibson received no help from his teammates. This was Gibson's fifth straight loss, and he's allowed 26 goals in that span. The 30-year-old is at 13-25-2 with a 3.41 GAA and an .891 save percentage over 44 appearances. Given his recent play, fantasy managers shouldn't be relying on Gibson for anything close to acceptable performances at this stage of the season.

Max Jones - Sitting out Tuesday Jones (upper body) won't play Tuesday versus the Kraken.

Impact Jones had a goal but played just 9:33 in Sunday's loss to the Lightning. The 26-year-old winger will be replaced by Ross Johnston in the lineup Tuesday. The Ducks have a rematch with the Kraken on Thursday, though it's unclear if Jones is on the road trip.

Brock McGinn - Done for season McGinn underwent disc surgery on his back and will be sidelined for four months.

Impact This effectively rules out McGinn for the rest of 2023-24. He is expected to be recovered in late July, though it's unclear if he will be ready for a full training camp in September. He was limited to three points over 24 contests this season.

Trevor Zegras - Good to go Zegras (ankle) will be activated from injured reserve ahead of his return to the lineup Tuesday against Seattle, per Alyson Lozoff of Bally Sports West.

Impact Zegras will start Tuesday's contest on the third line following a 31-game absence. While being limited to just 20 appearances this season, he has contributed four goals, seven points and 49 shots on net.

MARCH 26 • ROTOWIRE

Radko Gudas - Not on road trip Gudas (upper body) did not travel with the team and won't play Tuesday versus Seattle, according to Derek Lee of The Sporting Tribune.

Impact If Gudas doesn't join the Ducks at some point during the team's five-game road trip, he could be out until April 5 versus the Kraken. The 33-year-old blueliner hasn't played since March 14 due to his upper-body issue. Gudas has compiled six goals, 16 points, 124 PIM, 142 blocked shots and 213 hits in 60 appearances this season.

Alex Stalock - Dropped to minors Stalock was reassigned to AHL San Diego on Monday.

Impact Stalock served as Lukas Dostal's backup in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to Tampa Bay because John Gibson (personal) wasn't available. The 36-year-old Stalock hasn't seen any NHL playing time this season. In 12 AHL appearances this campaign, he has a 1-9-1 record with a 3.72 GAA and an .894 save percentage.

John Gibson - Back with team Gibson -- who missed Sunday's clash with the Lightning for personal reasons -- was back at practice Monday, Derek Lee of The Sporting Tribune reports.

Impact Gibson's return to practice also saw Alex Stalock sent back to the minors in a corresponding move. The veteran Gibson is stuck in a rut with a four-game losing streak during which he posted a 5.80 GAA and .833 save percentage. Based on the Ducks' previous rotation, Gibson figures to be between the pipes on the road against Seattle on Tuesday.

Ben Meyers - Bags apple in overtime loss Meyers notched an assist, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Lightning.

Impact Meyers has a helper in each of the last two games after spending two contests in the press box as a healthy scratch. The 25-year-old forward is still limited to fourth-line duties, but he's making a stronger case to stay in the lineup over Benoit-Olivier Groulx. Meyers has three points, 12 shots on net, 23 hits and a minus-3 rating over 16 games between the Ducks and the Avalanche this season.
