ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) -- Anaheim Ducks captain Ryan Getzlaf will
be out for at least two games after a deflected puck broke his nose.The Ducks
put Getzlaf on injured reserve Thursday, which means he'll miss the Ducks'
upcoming home games against Philadelphia and Chicago.
Getzlaf was hurt during
Tuesday's win at Phoenix when Coyotes captain Shane Doan's shot deflected off
Ducks defenseman Cam Fowler's stick and hit Getzlaf squarely in the face.
A CT
scan on Wednesday revealed multiple fractures in his nose. Getzlaf is expected
to visit a specialist on Friday, and the Ducks won't estimate how much time
he'll miss until after that consultation.
Getzlaf has 13 goals and 24 assists
while playing in all 40 games this season.
