Olen Zellweger - Posts helper Thursday Zellweger registered an assist in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Zellweger snapped a seven-game point drought with the assist. The 20-year-old has been over 20 minutes of ice time in six of 11 games in March, and he's also seeing fairly steady power-play time. The rookie blueliner has just three helpers over 15 contests, so his fantasy value remains limited in redraft formats, though his future is bright.

Pavel Mintyukov - Puts up assist in win Mintyukov notched an assist, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Mintyukov has two helpers over his last three contests. The 20-year-old rookie continues to stick in the Ducks' lineup, but his role -- particularly on the power play -- has fluctuated in recent weeks. He's at 27 points, 83 shots on net, 77 hits, 59 blocked shots and a minus-17 rating through 59 appearances. Mintyukov should be considered a bottom-four option on a low-scoring team for the remainder of this season, giving him limited fantasy appeal.

Cam Fowler - Notches power-play assist Fowler provided a power-play assist and fired four shots on goal in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Fowler had gone four games without a point entering Thursday. He has four helpers over 10 appearances in March. The 32-year-old blueliner is up to 32 points, 97 shots on net, 104 blocked shots and a minus-33 rating through 69 appearances as the Ducks' top defenseman.

Troy Terry - Records 30th helper Thursday Terry notched a power-play assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Terry has three points over his last three outings, but he was scoreless over the six games before that stretch. The Ducks' offense has been diminished lately -- they've scored a total of 18 goals over 11 games in March, leaving little scoring to go around. The 26-year-old winger has 19 goals, 30 helpers, 11 power-play points, 148 shots on net and a minus-8 rating through 64 appearances this season.

MARCH 22 • ROTOWIRE

Frank Vatrano - Nets 30th goal Vatrano scored a goal on a team-high six shots in Thursday's 4-0 win over Chicago.

Impact Vatrano capped the scoring midway through the third period, wiring a wrister past Arvid Soderblom on a power play. The goal is Vatrano's 30th this season, the first time he's reached that mark in his 10-year NHL career. The 30-year-old winger had gone nine games without a goal, tallying just a pair of assists in that span. Vatrano's up to a career-best 51 points (30 goals, 21 assists) through 70 games this season.

Brett Leason - Goal, assist in victory Leason picked up a goal and an assist in Thursday's 4-0 win over Chicago.

Impact Leason extended Anaheim's lead to 2-0 midway through the second period, beating Arvid Soderblom with a wrister on the rush, before adding an assist on Alex Killorn's tally later in the frame. Leason had gone scoreless in his last four games after scoring a pair of goals on March 12 against the same Blackhawks team. The 24-year-old winger is up to 11 goals and 20 points through 56 games this season in a bottom-six role.

Alex Killorn - Two goals in win Killorn scored a pair of goals in Thursday's 4-0 victory over Chicago.

Impact Killorn opened the scoring 3:10 into the second period, deflecting a Gustav Lindstrom shot past Arvid Soderblom, before extending Anaheim's lead to 3-0 with a second tally later in the frame.

Lukas Dostal - Blanks Chicago Dostal stopped 29 shots in a 4-0 shutout victory over the Blackhawks.

Impact Dostal was excellent Thursday, stopping 29 shots en route to the first shutout of his NHL career. The 23-year-old netminder had been 0-3-0 with an ugly .841 save percentage over his last four outings, though he continues to split netminding duties with John Gibson. Overall, Dostal is 11-19-1 with a .900 save percentage and 3.46 GAA this season. The Ducks are back in action Sunday at home versus Tampa Bay.

Leo Carlsson - Exits Thursday's game Carlsson left Thursday's game versus the Blackhawks with a lower-body injury.

Impact Carlsson collided with Alex Vlasic in the second period, and the Ducks' rookie got the worst of it. He needed assistance to the locker room after what appeared to be a knee-on-knee collision. Considering Carlsson has already missed time with a knee injury previously in the season, there's plenty of reason for concern for the 19-year-old. If the injury is severe, it could end his season.

MARCH 22 • ROTOWIRE

Radko Gudas - Remains out Thursday Gudas (upper body) is unavailable for Thursday's game against Chicago, per Derek Lee of The Sporting Tribune.

Impact Gudas has six goals, 16 points, 124 PIM, 213 hits and 142 blocks in 60 outings in 2023-24. This will be Anaheim's fourth straight game without his services. Gustav Lindstrom has been playing regularly due to Gudas' absence.

Lukas Dostal - Guarding cage Thursday Dostal will patrol the crease at home versus Chicago on Thursday, Alyson Lozoff of Bally Sports West reports.

Impact Dostal is winless in four straight, registering a 0-3-0 record to go with a 4.21 GAA and .841 save percentage. The 23-year-old netminder continues to see the majority of the workload as the team tries to figure out what it has in Dostal. Having said that, veteran John Gibson won't just give the crease up without a fight.

Trevor Zegras - Practices Wednesday Zegras (ankle) took part in Wednesday's practice without restrictions, though he didn't skate on a line or participate in special team drills, per Derek Lee of The Sporting Tribune...

Impact Zegras hasn't been in the lineup since Jan. 9, but he seems to be getting close to returning. When he is available, Zegras will likely serve in a top-six capacity and receive ample power-play ice time. The 23-year-old has four goals, seven points and 24 PIM in 20 contests this season.

MARCH 20 • ROTOWIRE

John Gibson - Drops fourth straight Gibson allowed four goals on 32 shots in Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Wild.

Impact After a clean first period, Gibson was tagged for three goals in the second while the Ducks failed to crack Filip Gustavsson on the other end, sticking Gibson with his fourth consecutive loss. The 30-year-old netminder had allowed six goals in each of his previous three outings -- he's just 1-5-1 with an ugly .856 save percentage in his last seven starts as he continues to lose work to Lukas Dostal. Overall, Gibson is 13-24-2 this season with an .891 save percentage and 2.40 GAA. It'll likely be Dostal between the pipes Thursday when the Ducks host Chicago.
