• Andrew Ladd: Announces retirement

  Rotowire Sep 10, 2023

  Ladd (knee) announced the end of his playing career Sunday. Ladd didn't play at all during the 2022-23 campaign due to a knee injury. The 37-year-old forward produced 256 goals and 550 points in 1,001 career NHL games across 16 seasons. Ladd won the Stanley Cup with the Hurricanes in 2006 and with the Blackhawks in 2010.

• Coyotes' Andrew Ladd: Fails physical, headed for LTIR

  Rotowire Sep 22, 2022

  Ladd (knee) failed his physical Thursday and will be placed on long-term injured reserve, Craig Morgan of PHNX Sports reports. Ladd's thrice surgically-repaired knee is evidently still an issue, and it appears as though he may be in danger of missing the entirety of the 2022-23 campaign. Ladd's in the last season of his seven-year, $38.5 million deal, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him formally retire after this campaign.

• Coyotes' Andrew Ladd: Solid in comeback campaign

  Rotowire May 11, 2022

  Ladd (lower body) posted 12 points, 68 hits, 57 shots on goal and 47 PIM in 51 contests this season. Ladd was considered essentially out of the NHL prior to the campaign, but he earned his place with the Coyotes as a veteran presence. While the offensive numbers weren't all that great, he was able to play in his 1,000th game in April before missing the final four contests. He's under contract for one more year on the deal he signed with the Islanders in 2016, so the 36-year-old will probably continue in a bottom-six role in 2022-23 if he continues his playing career.

  Rotowire Apr 21, 2022

  Ladd logged an assist and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blackhawks. With his appearance Wednesday, Ladd reached 1,000 games played -- a mark that looked nearly impossible after he played just a combined 30 NHL contests across the three previous seasons. He celebrated the occasion against one of his former teams and picked up an assist to give him 550 career points. His first year with the Coyotes has been solid for a player limited to bottom-six minutes. Ladd has 12 points, 56 shots on net, 67 hits and 47 PIM through 50 outings this season.

Romero of The Arizona Republic reports the winger was receiving treatment after the contest, though he's expected to be fine. The 36-year-old Ladd has done alright in a bottom-six role through 47 games, picking up seven goals, three assists, 54 shots on net, 66 hits and 47 PIM this season.

Ladd may have suffered a minor injury Tuesday against the Devils as he logged just 11:14 of ice time. If he's unable to go, it's unclear who would take his spot in the lineup as the Coyotes are dealing with a litany of injured forwards. The 36-year-old has just nine points in 46 games this season.

• Coyotes' Andrew Ladd: Returning Sunday

  Rotowire Apr 3, 2022

  Ladd (lower body) will be activated from injured reserve and play Sunday in Chicago, Jose Romero of The Arizona Republic reports. The veteran has missed the last 18 games with the injury, but he's finally ready to roll. Ladd has only managed nine points in 42 games in his first campaign with the Coyotes and hasn't provided much punch from a fantasy perspective, so there likely won't be much here for managers to latch onto in the final month of the season.

  Rotowire Feb 22, 2022

  Ladd will miss 4-6 weeks due to his lower-body injury suffered against Dallas on Sunday. Ladd has been plagued by injuries during his career, including missing the entire 2020-21 campaign. Given the length of his absence, the 36-year-old winger figures to be sidelined until late March or early April. Considering the British Columbia native has garnered just nine points in 42 games this year, his absence is unlikely to impact the majority of fantasy players. Given his recovery timeline, Ladd should end up on injured reserve in the coming days.

• Coyotes' Andrew Ladd: Chips in goal

  Rotowire Jan 23, 2022
