When Beleskey does return, look for him to challenge Andrew Gordon for the third line LW spot. The 23-year-old proved in the past he can fill the back of the net when he scored 11 goals in 60 games back in 2009-2010. At this point he should be considered day-to-day but won't have immediate fantasy hockey value.
Winger Matt Beleskey (shoulder) reported no problems after playing in the exhibition game Tuesday and likely will be available for the opener Friday.
Sounds like Beleskey is approaching 100 percent. The 23-year-old proved in the past he can fill the back of the net when he scored 11 goals in 60 games back in 2009-2010. Look for him to challenge Andrew Gordon for the third-line LW slot.

Good news for Beleskey, who battled injuries all last season. The 23-year-old proved in the past he can fill the back of the net when he scored 11 goals in 60 games back in 2009-2010. With most of the team's youngsters under-performing in training camp, expect Beleskey to earn a spot on the third line.

Toni Lydman and Matt Beleskey, who both underwent shoulder surgeries days apart in May, have not been cleared for contact but will skate with their teammates. Both have been skating at Anaheim Ice in informal workouts.
Two years ago Beleskey received a chance to play on the top line and returned the favor by scoring 11 goals in 60 games. Last season due to injury and inconsistency, the 2006 4th-round pick saw his playing time almost evaporate due to better prospects like Brandon McMillan and Kyle Palmieri. He should have a chance to earn back some playing time but likely can be acquired via waivers in most fantasy hockey leagues.
ANAHEIM — Toni Lydman and Matt Beleskey underwent similar operations two days apart in May to repair a torn labrum in their left shoulder and both Ducks players said their recovery remains on schedule even though they may not be ready for the Oct. 7 season opener against Buffalo in Helsinki.
