Mrazek out rest of season for Ducks following hip surgery | NHL.com 34-year-old goalie was 3-5-0 in 10 games this season as Anaheim’s backup

1 DAY AGO • NHL.COM

Petr Mrazek - Out for season Mrazek underwent season-ending hip surgery Tuesday.

Impact Mrazek's campaign with the Ducks ends with a 3-5-0 record, a 4.07 GAA and an .858 save percentage in 10 appearances. Given his lengthy injury history and the severity of a hip surgery, the 34-year-old goalie may not be ready to play at the start of the 2026-27 campaign. He'll likely also face reduced demand during free agency since he'll be coming off an injury and has seen performance decline in recent years.

Lukas Dostal - Heartbreaking loss to Canada Dostal turned aside 37 shots in Czechia's 4-3 overtime loss to Canada in the Olympic men's hockey quarterfinals Wednesday.

Impact Czechia held a 2-1 lead at the end of the first period and a 3-2 lead midway through the third as they attempted to pull off a seismic upset. However, Dostal could only watch helplessly as Nick Suzuki tipped home a goal with less than four minutes remaining in regulation before Mitch Marner skated through three Czech defenders in OT and beat the netminder with a backhand. Dostal will head back to the Ducks having gone 1-3 in the tournament with an .885 save percentage, but two of the losses came in overtime.

Ian Moore - Heads to minors Moore was reassigned to AHL San Diego on Wednesday, per Derek Lee of The Hockey News.

Impact Moore has two goals and nine points in 41 outings with the Ducks in 2025-26. Anaheim isn't scheduled to resume its season until next Wednesday versus Edmonton, so this is an opportunity for Moore to get in some work. It wouldn't be surprising if the 24-year-old defenseman was summoned before the Ducks' next game.

Lukas Dostal - Drawing start against Canada Dostal will tend the twine for Czechia during Wednesday's quarterfinal matchup against Canada at the 2026 Winter Olympics, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Dostal made a start against Canada in Czechia's tournament opener last Thursday, and he turned aside 31 of 36 shots in a 5-0 loss. However, he made 22 saves on 24 shots during Czechia's 3-2 win over Denmark in the qualification round Tuesday and will draw another start a day later.

Lukas Dostal - Redeems struggles with win Dostal turned aside 22 of 24 shots on net in Czechia's 3-2 win over Denmark in Olympic qualification round play Tuesday.

Impact After a tough pair of outings to begin his time at the Olympics, Dostal bounced back in a big way to help push Czechia through to the Olympic quarter-final. After tending a clean first and third period, the 25-year-old netminder is up to a 1-1-1 record, an .879 save percentage and a 3.65 GAA across three appearances at the Olympics. Czechia has favored the young netminder over Dan Vladar and Karel Vejmelka for the majority of the tournament, giving Dostal a solid chance to grab the start in the team's quarterfinal matchup against Canada on Wednesday.

Damian Clara - Overwhelmed again Tuesday Clara made 48 saves in Italy's 3-0 loss to Switzerland during Olympic qualifying round play Tuesday.

Impact The tournament's busiest netminder once again stood on his head and kept a game closer than it had any right to be, with two of the pucks that got past Clara coming on Swiss power plays. The Ducks prospect, a second-round pick in the 2023 NHL Draft, turned heads with his performance at the Olympics, but with Italy now eliminated Clara will return to Brynas IF in the Swedish Hockey League to finish up his season.

Lukas Dostal - Tending twine against Denmark Dostal will the patrol the blue paint for Czechia against Denmark on Tuesday in the qualifying round of the 2026 Winter Olympics, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.

Impact Dostal has allowed nine goals on 65 shots through two games during the tournament, both of which were losses. Denmark went 1-0-0-2 in the preliminary round in Group C, finishing third. If Dostal and the Czechs earn a win Tuesday, they will have a quick turnaround with an extraordinarily tough matchup against the Canadians on Wednesday.

Damian Clara - Expected to face Switzerland Clara is expected to start for Team Italy against Switzerland in Tuesday's qualification game at the 2026 Winter Olympics.

Impact Clara is gearing up for his fourth appearance of the tournament. Although he has a 6.51 GAA and an .895 save percentage in the 2026 Winter Games, Italy entered this tournament as a heavy underdog. Clara will once again have his work cut out for him versus Switzerland, but if Italy can pull off the upset, then the host nation will advance to Wednesday's quarterfinals match against Finland.

Ethan Procyszyn - Five points in OHL blowout win Procyszyn scored twice and added three assists in OHL North Bay's 9-1 win over Niagara on Sunday.

Impact This was Procyszyn's best game of the campaign so far. He's earned eight points over his last three outings. Overall, the Ducks prospect has 21 goals, 21 assists, 79 PIM and a plus-19 rating through 51 appearances this season, with his 0.82 points-per-game pace still down from his mark of 0.94 from last year.

Lukas Dostal - Comes up short in OT Dostal turned aside 25 of 29 shots on net in Czechia's 4-3 overtime loss to Switzerland in Olympic round-robin play Sunday.

Impact After tending a clean first period, Dostal allowed two goals in the second before ultimately falling in overtime. The 25-year-old netminder has lost each of his two starts at the Olympics, where he has posted a 4.50 GAA and an .862 save percentage. With Czechia finding its lone win of the tournament with Dan Vladar in net and Karel Vejmelka still waiting to make his Olympic debut, Dostal is unlikely to start the team's first game of bracket play following his tournament struggles to this point.

Impact Clara was outstanding versus Sweden on Wednesday, stopping 46 of 49 shots, before he was forced to leave the game after suffering a leg injury.

Damian Clara - Takes loss in relief Friday Clara turned aside seven of eight shots Friday after replacing Davide Fadani midway through the third period, getting stuck with the loss as Italy fell 3-2 to Slovakia in Olympic r...

Impact Clara started Italy's tournament opener Wednesday and stood on his head to keep the game close again Sweden, but he suffered a leg injury late and was replaced by Fadani. This time around, the switch was made in reverse as Italy tried to spark a comeback from a 2-1 deficit, but instead Clara allowed the game-winning goal to Adam Ruzicka. Clara is expected to be between the pipes Saturday against Finland.

Damian Clara - Backing up Friday Clara (leg) has recovered enough to be the backup goaltender Friday versus Slovakia, according to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.

Impact Clara was outstanding Wednesday before suffering the injury, turning aside 46 of 49 shots, leaving the game trailing Sweden 3-2. He should be well enough to return to the cage Saturday versus Finland. Davide Fadani will get the start Friday for Italy, in place of Clara.

FEBRUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Lukas Dostal - Falls flat in Olympic opener Dostal made 31 saves in Czechia's 5-0 loss to Canada in Olympic round-robin play Thursday.

Impact His offense, led by NHL stars such as David Pastrnak and Martin Necas, couldn't solve Jordan Binnington in the other crease, but it was Dostal's defense that really let him down in the rout. Czechia should have a much easier time in their next game Friday against France, but it's not clear yet whether Dostal will get the start in that contest over Karel Vejmelka or Dan Vladar.

Lukas Dostal - Facing Canada Dostal will be between the pipes when Czechia takes on Canada at the 2026 Winter Olympics on Thursday, Mark Masters of TSN reports.

Impact Dostal won eight of his last nine starts with the Ducks, prior to the start of the Olympics. He is 21-13-2 with a 2.92 GAA and an .897 save percentage across 38 appearances this season. He will have a tough matchup as Canada is a co-favorite for gold, along with the United States.

Damian Clara - Sustains leg injury Clara exited Italy's Olympic game against Sweden on Wednesday because of a right leg injury, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.

Impact Clara was doing a fantastic job before being forced to leave midway through the third period. He had turned aside 46 shots, and while Italy was still down 3-2 to Sweden at the time of his exit, that's a far closer score than many would have projected going into the game. Backup netminder Davide Fadani took over between the pipes. It remains to be seen if Clara will be an option Friday versus Slovakia.

Damian Clara - Starting against Sweden Clara will draw the start for Italy against Sweden at the 2026 Winter Olympics on Wednesday, Kyle Cushman of theScore reports.

Impact Clara appeared in a pair of games for AHL San Diego last year but has played for Brynas IF in Sweden this year, going 16-13-0 with a 2.49 GAA and .888 save percentage over 30 appearances. He'll face a tough test during Wednesday's tournament opener against Sweden, a club that features plenty of NHL talent.
