Tough break for Carlsson with that thigh injury. Three to five weeks is a rough timeline, especially with the Olympics looming. Sweden was probably counting on him being a key piece of their roster. Hope he can recover in time, but you never want to rush these things.

On the bright side, nice to see the Ducks stringing some wins together after that brutal nine-game skid. Beating the Kings twice in a row in overtime is pretty satisfying, I imagine. Granlund coming through clutch like that shows some real veteran presence.

Curious to see how they handle the Rangers tonight. New York's been a bit all over the place lately, so this might be a good opportunity for Anaheim to keep the momentum going. The early season showed this team can compete when things click - just a matter of finding that consistency again.
