Husso will protect the road goal versus the Hurricanes on Thursday, Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News reports.
Husso will get his first start during this stint with the big club, which comes with Petr Mrazek (undisclosed) on injured reserve. Husso may have a chance to carve out some playing time, as Lukas Dostal has struggled mightily in recent outings. The Hurricanes have 21 goals over their last six games, going 3-3-0 in that span.

Ducks' Troy Terry: Suffers upper-body injury
Rotowire
Terry has sustained an upper-body injury and is day-to-day, the team announced Thursday.
Terry has 13 goals and 42 points in 43 appearances in 2025-26. He was on a three-game scoring streak (one goal, four points) prior to getting hurt. Ryan Strome might draw back into the lineup Thursday versus Carolina due to Terry's absence.

Ducks' Nikita Nesterenko: Still with big club
Rotowire
Nesterenko cleared waivers Wednesday and will remain with the Ducks, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
Nesterenko's waivers timer will reset, and he can now play another 10 games or spend 30 days on the NHL roster before needing to pass through waivers again. With Nesterenko staying on the roster, the Ducks have a full 23-man roster of 14 forwards, seven defensemen and two goalies.

Ducks' Tim Washe: Up from minors
Rotowire
Washe was summoned from AHL San Diego on Wednesday.
Petr Mrazek (lower body) was put on injured reserve in a corresponding move. Washe has 13 goals and 25 points in 30 outings with San Diego in 2025-26. The 24-year-old hasn't played in the NHL yet this season, but he had no points, two shots and four hits across two regular-season appearances with Anaheim in 2024-25.

Ducks' Petr Mrazek: Designated for IR
Rotowire
Mrazek was placed on injured reserve Wednesday due to a lower-body injury.
With Mrazek having already missed Tuesday's clash with the Flyers, he will only need to be out of action for two more games due to his placement on IR. Having said that, the Ducks haven't provided a specific update regarding his timeline; it could certainly be longer. While Lukas Dostal will continue to serve as the No. 1 option in Anaheim, Ville Husso was added to the NHL roster to serve as the backup while Mrazek is unavailable.
Killorn scored a power-play goal on two shots in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers.
Killorn has scored in consecutive contests after a 12-game goal drought. The 36-year-old forward's tally Tuesday was just his second power-play point of the campaign. He's now at 13 points, 73 shots on net, 36 hits, 20 PIM and a plus-1 rating through 43 outings overall. Killorn has moved around the lineup but has often settled into middle-six usage this season.

Ducks' Cutter Gauthier: Pots goal against Flyers
Rotowire
Gauthier scored a power-play goal on three shots and went minus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers.
Playing against the team that drafted him, Gauthier made an early impact with a goal at 4:15 of the first period. However, former Duck Trevor Zegras stole the show after that to set the Flyers on the path to victory. Many in Philadelphia likely envisioned seeing Gauthier become a 20-goal scorer in the city when he was selected fifth overall in 2022, and in a way, that happened -- his tally Tuesday gave him 20 goals and 40 points in 43 appearances. The 21-year-old has added 165 shots on net, 29 hits, 16 PIM and a plus-5 rating in a fantastic second NHL campaign.

Ducks' Jackson LaCombe: Provides spark on power play
Rotowire
LaCombe picked up two power-play assists in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers.
The Ducks couldn't get anything going at even strength, but LaCombe had a hand in power-play tallies by Cutter Gauthier in the first period and Alex Killorn in the third. It was the LaCombe's first multi-point performance since Nov. 26. He has six goals, 26 points, 96 shots on net, 70 blocked shots, 38 hits and a minus-8 rating in 43 contests this season.

Ducks' Troy Terry: Two PP helpers in Tuesday's loss
Rotowire
Terry collected two power-play assists in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers.
The Ducks couldn't get anything going at even strength, but Terry had a hand in power-play tallies by Cutter Gauthier in the first period and Alex Killorn in the third. Terry collected his first points with the man advantage since Nov. 28. He has gotten onto the scoresheet in three straight games, and over the last 15 contests, he's contributed six goals and 13 points despite Anaheim's recent struggles.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: Tough night in Philly
Rotowire
Dostal turned aside 34 of 38 shots in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers, with Philadelphia's final goal getting scored into an empty net.
An early 1-0 lead for Anaheim was quickly erased by Dostal's former teammate, Trevor Zegras, who struck twice before the end of the first period to put Philadelphia in the lead for good. Dostal has lost five straight decisions, going 0-4-1 over his last seven outings with a 4.26 GAA and an .847 save percentage. However, his spot as the Ducks' No. 1 netminder isn't in jeopardy.
Mrazek (undisclosed) won't suit up Tuesday versus the Flyers, Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune reports.
Mrazek will miss at least one game with the injury. Lukas Dostal is starting Tuesday while Ville Husso serves as backup. Mrazek's status for the remainder of the Ducks' road trip is unclear at this time.

Ducks' Lukas Dostal: In goal against Flyers
Rotowire
Dostal will guard the road goal versus the Flyers on Tuesday, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports.
Dostal will unsurprisingly get the start after Petr Mrazek (undisclosed) was injured Monday against the Capitals. The 25-year-old Dostal stopped all three shots he faced after entering Monday's game, but he has lost his last four decisions (0-3-1) while allowing a total of 21 goals on 125 shots (.832 save percentage) over his last six appearances. Dostal will need to do a lot better to help the Ducks get out of their skid, though Ville Husso has done a fine job when called upon.

Ducks' Nikita Nesterenko: Placed on waivers
Rotowire
Anaheim waived Nesterenko on Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Nesterenko is currently stuck in a 17-game goal drought during which he has recorded three assists, 20 shots and 33 hits while averaging 11:37 of ice time. Assuming the 24-year-old winger clears waivers, he will head down to AHL San Diego. The move to waive Nesterenko could result in increased minutes for Jansen Harkins.

Ducks' Olen Zellweger: Snags assist in loss
Rotowire
Zellweger registered an assist, four shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Capitals.
Zellweger and Radko Gudas had a decent defensive game, but the Ducks as a whole struggled. Zellweger hasn't scored a goal since the end of his four-game point streak in late November, but he has picked up six helpers, 17 shots on net, 14 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over his last 16 outings despite playing in a bottom-four role. He's also lost his power-play time during that stretch. Overall, Zellweger is at 16 points, 70 shots, 42 blocks and a plus-7 rating across 41 appearances this season.

Ducks' Jacob Trouba: Pots goal Monday
Rotowire
Trouba scored a goal on three shots, blocked two shots, added five PIM and went minus-3 in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Capitals.
Trouba snapped a four-game point drought. He also answered to Brandon Duhaime in a first-period fight that was likely retribution for Trouba's hit on Ryan Leonard a month ago. The 31-year-old Trouba is up to seven goals, 18 points, 83 shots on net, 83 hits, 73 blocked shots, 13 PIM and a plus-5 rating through 42 appearances this season. He won't always chip in offense, but his non-scoring production should be steady.

Ducks' Alex Killorn: Finds twine in loss
Rotowire
Killorn scored a goal on five shots and added two PIM in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Capitals.
Killorn ended a five-game point drought with his second-period tally. The 36-year-old forward was limited to three points across 15 contests in December. Overall, he has three goals, nine assists, 71 shots on net, 35 hits, 20 PIM and 18 blocked shots across 42 outings. The Ducks have shuffled the lines on occasion amid a six-game losing streak, so Killorn could rotate through a few different forward combinations until something sticks.

Ducks' Chris Kreider: Tallies in Monday's loss
Rotowire
Kreider scored a goal in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Capitals.
Kreider opened the scoring at 6:33 of the first period, but the Capitals had the next five tallies. That was too much for the Ducks to overcome. Kreider had been ice-cold entering Monday, going 15 games without a goal and adding just three assists in that span. The veteran winger is now at 14 goals, nine assists, 76 shots on net, 34 hits, 18 PIM and a minus-4 rating over 38 appearances. His shooting percentage is still a lofty 18.4 percent -- it was 26.1 percent at the end of November before his December skid.
