Sean Durzi - Will be out long-termDurzi (upper body) is expected to require a surgery to address his injury, which will keep him out of action for 4-5 months, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports.

ImpactDurzi will likely be sidelined until after the 4 Nations Faceoff in mid-February. This is a massive blow to Utah's blue line, especially with John Marino (upper body) also absent on a week-to-week basis. Michael Kesselring took over Durzi's top-pairing role Wednesday versus the Ducks, while Juuso Valimaki is poised for more power-play time.

Sean Durzi - Placed on injured reserveDurzi (upper body) has been designated for injured reserve Thursday, per the NHL media site.

ImpactDurzi's IR placement shouldn't come as a surprise considering he is out indefinitely due to his upper-body injury. With John Marino (upper body) also sidelined and Robert Bortuzzo (undisclosed) getting hurt against the Ducks on Wednesday, the Utah blue line is getting rather thin. Michael Kesselring and Juuso Valimaki will likely be tasked with picking up significant minutes for the time being.

Josh Doan - Manages helper in overtime lossDoan posted an assist and four PIM in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Ducks.

ImpactDoan picked up his second point of the campaign in this contest. The 22-year-old forward has added six PIM, four shots on net, and six hits through five games while seeing steady time on the third line. Penalties may become an issue for Doan, but his spot on the second power-play unit should give him a safe floor on offense, making him an option in deeper fantasy formats this year.

Mikhail Sergachev - Garners assist in overtime lossSergachev logged an assist and four blocked shots in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Ducks.

ImpactSergachev figures to be an even bigger part of Utah's game plan now that Sean Durzi (upper body) is sidelined. Sergachev is up to four assists (one on the power play), five shots on goal and 12 blocked shots through five contests. The 26-year-old defenseman is poised to play big minutes in all situations, which could set him up to challenge his career-best 64-point campaign from 2022-23.
