ANAHEIM, Calif. -- The injuries continue to pile up for the Anaheim Ducks. So do road victories for the Vancouver Canucks.
The teams meet Thursday night at the Honda Center.
The Ducks (6-6-3) are coming off an entertaining yet ultimately frustrating 4-3 shootout loss at home to the rival Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday night while the Canucks (8-5-2) pulled out a 5-3 victory at Calgary the same evening to improve to 5-1 on the road this season.
Anaheim Coach Randy Carlyle continues to deal with a rash of injuries to key players like center Ryan Getlzaf, who is expected to miss at least two months with a facial fracture which required surgery Monday, defenseman Cam Fowler (knee), center Ryan Kesler (hip surgery) and right winger Patrick Eaves (Guillen-Barre' syndrome).
