Trouba (upper body) missed practice on Wednesday and is hopefully to be ready for the Rangers' next game on Saturday.

The Rangers have been off since Monday and do not play again until Saturday, so Trouba is hopeful that will be enough time to recover from his upper-body ailment that has him considered day-to-day. In his last three games, Trouba has two points (0G / 2A), nine shots, and eight hits.

Jacob Trouba
Terry (upper body) is out on Wednesday vs. Ottawa.

Terry played the last two games after returning from an injury, tallying one point (0G / 1A), but will return to the sidelines on Wednesday due to an upper-body injury. The Ducks will likely be hard-pressed to find offence on Wednesday night as they will also be without Adam Henrique, who was traded to the Edmonton Oilers earlier in the day.

Troy Terry
Dostal will start on Wednesday vs. Ottawa.

Dostal has started two of the last three games and will return to the crease on Wednesday night. The Czech netminder has faced a heavy workload over his last two outings (1-1-0) and responded admirably, saving 81 of 86 shots .942 SV%. The Ducks, who traded Adam Henrique and Sam Carrick to the Edmonton Oilers on Wednesday, are +168 home underdogs against the Ottawa Senators.

McTavish is in a walking boot but does not have any broken bones; no timeline.

The Ducks avoided a potentially devastating loss as McTavish did not suffer any broken bones after suffering a lower-body injury in a 4-3 win over the New Jersey Devils on March 1st. McTavish will likely miss his second straight game on Tuesday when the Ducks host the Ottawa Senators. Before his injury, McTavish had nine points (4G / 5A) in his last eight games.

Mason McTavish
Ducks did not have an update on Carlsson (upper-body); not expected to play Wednesday.

Carlsson (undisclosed) is not on the ice for warmups and is not expected to play against the Devils on Friday.

It's unclear whether this is just maintenance or if Carlsson is dealing with an undisclosed injury. The second-overall pick from the 2023 NHL Entry Draft has nine goals and 14 assists in 40 games this season.

Leo Carlsson
Dostal will start against the Devils on Friday.

Dostal will get the nod for the tail-end of Anaheim's back-to-back after John Gibson got the start in San Jose on Thursday. Dostal took the loss his last time out, allowing three goals on 28 shots against the Predators on Sunday as the Ducks fell by a score of 4-2. Dostal record now sits at a lowly 8-15-1 on the year to go along with an .897 SV%. He draws another difficult matchup on Friday as the Ducks find themselves as +240 underdogs at home against the Devils.
