Troy Terry - Not at practice Thursday Terry (personal) is not at practice Thursday, according to Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune.

Impact Terry has three assists in three games for the Ducks this season. He is questionable for Thursday's tilt against Carolina. If Terry is unable to play, look for Sam Colangelo to enter the lineup, alongside Frank Vatrano and Mikael Granlund on Anaheim's third line.

Pavel Mintyukov - Deals helper in win Mintyukov recorded an assist, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Penguins.

Impact Mintyukov's first point of the season came on a Cutter Gauthier tally late in the first period. After being a scratch at times in 2024-25, Mintyukov has opened this campaign as a regular on the third pairing while the Ducks are carrying just six blueliners. The 21-year-old has posted three shots on net, three hits, two blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over three contests.

Leo Carlsson - Supplies two power-play assists Carlsson logged two power-play assists, three blocked shots and a minus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Penguins.

Impact Carlsson has multiple points in both games where the Ducks have scored two or more goals. He's up to one goal, four assists (three on the power play), eight shots on net and a minus-2 rating over three total contests this season. The 20-year-old center has the talent to sustain a hot start, which could lead to an even bigger breakout than his 45-point sophomore campaign in 2024-25.

OCTOBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Drew Helleson - Finds twine Tuesday Helleson scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Penguins.

Impact Helleson gave the Ducks a 3-2 lead midway through the second period on a set-up from Chris Kreider. The goal was Helleson's first point in three games, and he's added five shots on net, two blocked shots, one hit and a minus-1 rating this season. The Ducks are carrying just six blueliners early in the year, so the 24-year-old doesn't appear to have a reason to worry about his playing time. It wouldn't be surprising to see the Ducks for their five-game road trip, which begins Sunday in Chicago.

Cutter Gauthier - Scores again in win Gauthier scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Penguins.

Impact Gauthier tied the game at 2-2 with his tally late in the first period. The 21-year-old winger needed 21 games to pot three goals last year, but he's done it in just three contests in 2025-26. That bodes well for him avoiding a sophomore slump, though the Ducks haven't faced any particularly tough defenses yet. Gauthier remains locked in as a top-six forward with power-play time, and all fantasy managers should at least be keeping an eye on his performance.

Chris Kreider - Starring role in win Kreider scored two power-play goals on four shots, added an assist and went minus-2 in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Penguins.

Impact Kreider was able to torment an old rival from his Rangers days, ripping home power-play tallies in the first and third periods. His second goal stood as the game-winner. Kreider is up to four goals and a helper while adding 10 shots on net and four hits over three contests this season. He's looking to bounce back from a disappoint 30-point effort in 2024-25, and he's off to a fantastic start in his first year with the Ducks.

Lukas Dostal - Prevails over Penguins Dostal stopped 22 of 25 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Penguins.

Impact All three of the Penguins' goals featured some sort of redirection, so it's tough to pin any of them on Dostal. The 25-year-old evened his record at 1-1-0 with six goals allowed on 56 shots over his first two starts of the season. Given Petr Mrazek's lackluster performance in a 7-6 overtime win over the Sharks on Saturday, it shouldn't take much for Dostal to claim a majority of the starts. The Ducks are back in action in a tough matchup against the Hurricanes on Thursday before embarking on a road trip.
