Johnston will draw right back into the Ducks' lineup after sitting out Sunday's game in Vancouver. Bo Groulx will sit in his place.

The Ducks have favoured Dostal between the pipes lately and will turn to him for the third time in the last four games as they attempt to snap their five-game losing skid. Considering the Ducks' recent offensive woes, Dostal has performed reasonably for the Ducks lately, posting a .907 SV% in his last six outings (1-4-1). That said, the Ducks enter action on Tuesday as sizeable +205 road underdogs against the Calgary Flames.

Myatovic was drafted by Anaheim in the 2023 second round (33rd overall) and has signed a three-year, entry-level contract on Friday and will join San Diego (AHL) for the remainder of the season. The 19-year-old left-winger just completed his fourth junior season with the Seattle Thunderbirds (AHL) and had nine goals, 30 points and 20 PIMs in 34 games played.

Vaakanainen will draw right back into the lineup after sitting out Tuesday's game as Owen Zellweger will be the odd-man out on Thursday. Vaakanainen has one goal and twelve assists in 61 games this season.

Zellweger will be the odd-man out on Thursday as Urho Vaakanainen draws back into the lineup. Zellweger has no goals and three assists in 17 games this season.

Dostal will be back between the pipes for the Ducks on Thursday after John Gibson got the nod in Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Kraken. Dostal's last appearance came against the Lightning on Sunday. He allowed three goals on 27 shots in the overtime loss. The 23-year-old netminder has posted a respectable .901 SV% across 36 appearances for a struggling Ducks team this season. He draws yet another tough matchup on Thursday as Anaheim finds themselves as +195 underdogs in Seattle.

Vaakanainen will be the odd-man out in Seattle on Tuesday. William Lagesson will draw into the lineup in his place.

Gibson will be back between the pipes for the Ducks on Tuesday after Lukas Dostal made rare back-to-back starts on Thursday and Sunday. Gibson will be eager to snap a personal four-game losing streak, with his last victory coming in the form a 6-4 win over the Sharks way back on February 29th. The Ducks' long-term goaltender is the owner of a 13-24-2 record and an .891 SV% on the season. Things won't get any easier for Gibson on Tuesday as the Ducks find themselves as +170 underdogs in Seattle.

The team added the recovery will have McGinn sidelined for approximately four months, ending his 2023-24 season. McGinn had one goal and two assists in 24 games with the Ducks this season.

Zegras last played in early January and missed almost six weeks earlier with a lower-body injury he suffered on November 7th. The talented Zegras has been limited to only 20 games in an injury-riddled season, scoring seven points (4G / 3A) in a disappointing season riddled with injuries.

Stalock was recalled to back up Lukas Dostal on Sunday as John Gibson was not available due to personal reasons. The 36-year-old Stalock has spent most of the season in the AHL with the San Diego Gulls, posting a pedestrian 3.72 GAA and .894 SV% in 12 games (1-9-1).

Gibson was not available in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Tampa Bay Lighting due to personal reasons but was back at practice on Monday. Gibson has struggled between the pipes lately, allowing four or more goals in four straight games (1-3-0), but should return to the crease this week.
