Troy Terry - Day-to-day with upper-body injuryTerry sustained an upper-body injury Friday and is day-to-day as a result, Derek Lee of The Sporting Tribune reports Saturday.
ImpactTerry was hurt in the third period of Anaheim's 2-0 loss to Arizona when he collided with teammate Mason McTavish. Terry has nine goals and 22 points in 35 outings in 2023-24. If he can't play Sunday versus Edmonton, then Brock McGinn will likely draw back into the lineup while Max Jones might get some work on the power play.

Matias Maccelli - Supplies helper in Friday's winMaccelli posted an assist in Friday's 2-0 win over the Ducks.
ImpactMaccelli set up Lawson Crouse for the Coyotes' second goal of the contest. This helper was Maccelli's fifth over the last six games, and he finished December with 11 points across 13 outings. The 23-year-old winger is up to 27 points, 71 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through 35 appearances this season. He remains a key playmaker on the second line and on the power play.

Alexander Kerfoot - Adds power-play helperKerfoot notched a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Friday's 2-0 win over the Ducks.
ImpactKerfoot has two goals and five helpers over his last six games, and three of those points have come on the power play. He assisted on Clayton Keller's opening tally in the first period Friday. Kerfoot is up to 22 points (six on the power play), 50 shots on net and a plus-3 rating over 35 contests. He's been a natural fit since moving to the top line, so the 29-year-old is a player to keep an eye on in most fantasy formats.

Nick Schmaltz - Notches power-play assistSchmaltz recorded a power-play assist in Friday's 2-0 win over the Ducks.
ImpactSchmaltz set up a Clayton Keller tally in the first period. It's been a rather quiet December for Schmaltz, who ends the month with four goals and two assists over 13 contests, though the lack of production hasn't cost him a top-line role or a power-play spot. The 27-year-old is up to 23 points (12 on the power play), 70 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating through 35 appearances. He continues to be solid for fantasy managers in need of points and power-play production, but he won't help in the physical categories.

John Gibson - On wrong end of shutoutGibson allowed two goals on 32 shots in Friday's 2-0 loss to the Coyotes.
ImpactGibson had won his last two outings, and he's allowed two goals or fewer in each of his last three games. The Ducks weren't able to give him any support in Friday's loss. He dropped to 7-14-0 with a 2.77 GAA and a .909 save percentage through 23 outings this season. Gibson figures to see most of the playing time going forward, as Lukas Dostal has struggled to display any consistency when given starts this year. The Ducks are back in action with a tough home matchup versus the Oilers on Sunday.
