• Ducks' Leo Carlsson: Injured Monday

  19H ago • By RotoWire

  Carlsson won't return to Monday's game against the Kraken after sustaining an upper-body injury, according to Derek Lee of The Hockey News. Carlsson was checked by Seattle's Tye Kartye into Anaheim's net in the middle frame. Carlsson remained down for a few moments but was eventually able to skate off the ice on his own. The Ducks face the Kraken again on Wednesday, so an update on the 19-year-old's status should surface before then.

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Carlsson scored the game-winning goal in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Blackhawks. Carlsson's tally came at 9:38 of the third period. He's scored six times this season, and four of them have been game-winners. He's tied for the second in the league in the category, even with Edmonton's Leon Draisaitl and one behind Minnesota's Matt Boldy. Carlsson has four points over his last five contests, giving him 10 points, 28 shots on net and a minus-1 rating through 18 outings overall in a top-line role.

• Ducks' Leo Carlsson: Records pair of assists

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Carlsson posted two assists, including one on the power play, in Friday's 6-4 win over the Red Wings. Carlsson picked up his second multi-point effort in this contest. He has three points over his last three contests, bouncing back from a four-game slump before that. The 19-year-old center is up to nine points (three on the power play), 26 shots on net and a minus-2 rating over 16 outings in a top-six role. Carlsson should be able to grow his offense over the course of the season, though the Ducks have struggled to score as a team, so that could limit his upside slightly.

• Ducks' Leo Carlsson: Lights lamp in Sunday's win

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Carlsson scored a goal in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Blue Jackets. Carlsson ended a four-game slump with his tally midway through the third period, which ended up being the game-winner. The 19-year-old center has had to deal with frequent changes in linemates as head coach Greg Cronin looks for combinations to spark an offense that has scored three or more goals just five times in 14 contests. Carlsson is at five tallies, two assists, 26 shots on net and a minus-3 rating this season, and he should continue to be a fixture in the top six and on the power play.

• Ducks' Leo Carlsson: Nets power-play marker

  27D ago • By RotoWire

  Carlsson scored a power-play goal in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Islanders. Carlsson opened the scoring at 14:05 of the first period. The center has four goals, including two on the power play, as well as two assists, 18 shots on net and a minus-3 rating through nine appearances. Carlsson may not yet be a point-per-game threat, but he's providing decent offense from a top-line role in his second campaign. Given that he was liked more for his playmaking when he was drafted, there's more offense to unlock here.
