Joel Quenneville confirmed that Mikael Granlund (lower-body) will be in tonight. #FlyTogether

Ville Husso is the Ducks’ starter tonight against the Capitals. #FlyTogether

Looks like Ryan Strome will draw back in tonight after being a healthy scratch for the past two games. Mikael Granlund (lower-body) also looks set to return after missing the last 10 games. #FlyTogether

Per Ducks PR, Slava Buteyets is the 72nd goaltender to play a game in the ECHL, AHL and NHL in the same season. He is the second Ducks goalie to accomplish this feat in the same season, Timo Pielmeier in 2010-11 was the first. #FlyTogether

Ducks postgame (12/03) - Joel Quenneville #FlyTogether

Buteyets on his first taste of NHL action: “Things happen quickly. Plays happen quickly. You don't have time to set up and prepare for the shots. You have to manage all players in your zones. We’ll keep working on it and we’ll keep pushing.” #FlyTogether

Buteyets on moving from the ECHL to the AHL to the NHL all in the same season: “Things happen quickly, so you have to just get used to it, and it's nothing but work. So it doesn't matter where are you, you have to put it to work every single time. Doesn’t matter.” #FlyTogether

Slava Buteyets on making his NHL debut: “NHL game, especially at home at Anaheim. It means a lot for me and I’m so appreciative to the club. Of course, it was exciting for me, I was waiting for this game.” #FlyTogether

Slava Buteyets said goaltending coach Peter Budaj notified him during the second intermission that he would be coming in for the third. “I can’t say that I was surprised, because all the coaches telling me that I have all always been ready, so that's what I was.” #FlyTogether

Radko Gudas on Slava Buteyets making his NHL debut: “He had a very tough position to go in. He had some very tough shots (to face) right away. Two of the goals went off our own guys, so it's very hard for him to stop those, but I thought he'd held his ground.” #FlyTogether

More Gudas: “There's still a lot of things we need to work on. This is a long season, so we need to go step after step and try to put together a full 60. I thought last game, we did a lot better job in all those things. Today, we kind of took a step back.” #FlyTogether

Radko Gudas said performances like tonight are even worse when they’re at home. “We want to hold ourselves to the highest possible standard. We think highly of ourselves. We want to be better every day and this wasn't the case today. Big learning process for us.” #FlyTogether

More Gudas: “We didn't own the blue line like we can do. We didn't use our speed to our advantage. There's a lot of pucks that we keep bringing back, we usually advance forward. So those are little things that we usually do, and today we didn't.” #FlyTogether

Radko Gudas on tonight’s performance: “We’ve got to find how to play these games and we’ve got to play a lot simpler in these games. It bit us today, our mistakes.” #FlyTogether

Joel Quenneville on if the team can take any positives from tonight’s game: “It’s over.” #FlyTogether

Final: Ducks 0, Mammoth 7. Anaheim is shut out for the second time this season. Their worst performance of the year thus far by a country mile. #FlyTogether

Previewing tonight’s Ducks-Mammoth matchup with projected lineups and quotes from Ian Moore and Ducks head coach Joel Quenneville. #FlyTogether @thehockeynews.bsky.social ‬⁩

Joel Quenneville said Mikael Granlund (lower-body) could be an option for either the end of the homestand or the next road trip. #FlyTogether

Joel Quenneville said that Petr Mrázek’s (lower-body) timeline is probably 2-3 weeks. #FlyTogether

Ville Husso will start for Anaheim tonight against the Mammoth, per head coach Joel Quenneville. #FlyTogether

Spoke to new Ducks backup goalie Slava Buteyets back in September about his first taste of pro hockey, where he wants to improve and learning from Gulls goaltending coach Jeff Glass. #FlyTogether

Per NHL PR, Leo Carlsson (157 GP) became the fifth-fastest Ducks player to record his first 25 career multi-point games. He trails only Paul Kariya (82 GP), Trevor Zegras (111 GP), Bobby Ryan (147 GP) and Ryan Getzlaf (147 GP). #FlyTogether

Final: Ducks 4, Blues 1. Goals came from McTavish, Mintyukov, Carlsson and Kreider (ENG). Ville Husso made 22 saves in net. #FlyTogether

Seeing a vet like Strome get the health bomb is a bit surprising. Don’t think he’s played poorly. Perhaps a wake-up call for the team? #FlyTogether

Ian Moore draws back in, and Ryan Strome is a healthy scratch tonight in St. Louis, per @AlexisDownie_ on @DucksStream. Anaheim rolling with an 11-7 lineup for the second time this season. #FlyTogether

With Lukáš Dostál and Petr Mrázek both out with injuries, the Ducks have recalled Vyacheslav “Slava” Buteyets from AHL San Diego. Dostál has also been placed on injured reserve. #FlyTogether

Final: Ducks 3, Blackhawks 5. Goals came from Gauthier, Zellweger and Kreider. Anaheim blows a 3-0 lead and will now have their goaltending depth tested with both Dostál and now Mrázek out with injuries. Back at it tomorrow in St. Louis. #FlyTogether

Ducks postgame (11/28) - Joel Quenneville #FlyTogether

Leo Carlsson on Ville Husso: “Huge save (at the end of overtime). I don’t know how much time was left, but huge save there for us to not lose the game. He played great. We didn’t (like) our defensive play, but great game from him.” #FlyTogether

Leo Carlsson on the team’s no-quit attitude: “I hope you guys see that, too. Different team, different hunger, different mentality. It’s been great so far this season.” #FlyTogether

Kreider with some praise for Ville Husso, who made a few big saves down the stretch. “Played fantastic. We’ve had great goaltending all season. Got to continue to try and help out our goaltenders, because we ask a lot of them every single game.” #FlyTogether

Chris Kreider on today’s atmosphere: “It was fun. It was loud. There was a lot of energy in the building. A lot of kids, too, being the early afternoon game and after, ice skating. It was a tough one, obviously more fun to come away with the win.” #FlyTogether

Former Duck Brian Dumoulin stopped by the Ducks’ locker room to say hi and chat with some of his old teammates. #FlyTogether

Ville Husso and Darcy Kuemper lead their respective teams out for warmups. #FlyTogether  #GoKingsGo

Spent the final hour of my birthday writing up a preview for tomorrow’s Ducks-Kings Black Friday matinee matchup (this is your cue to wish me a happy birthday) #FlyTogether @thehockeynews.bsky.social ‬⁩

Beckett Sennecke on the prospect of playing for Team Canada at World Juniors: “My focus is here with the Ducks right now. I haven’t really given any thought to that, to be honest.” #FlyTogether

Per NHL PR, Beckett Sennecke became the second teenager in Ducks history to record a five-game point streak, following Oleg Tverdovsky (5 GP in 1995-96). #FlyTogether

It will go unnoticed because of the result, but thought the Ducks’ fourth line did a good job tonight. They kept the puck out of their own zone (for the most part) and created a few scoring chances. One of their better games from this recent stretch. #FlyTogether

Ducks postgame vs. VAN (11/26) - Joel Quenneville #FlyTogether

First time this season that I’ve seen Joel Quenneville appear visibly upset/disappointed at his team’s performance during a postgame presser. He knows they could have been better and gotten a better result tonight. #FlyTogether

Jackson LaCombe on tonight’s performance: “I thought we came out hot and we had a lot of chances. Just a few bounces didn't go our way, that’s just how it is sometimes. I don't think we did anything wrong at the start. Just happens.” #FlyTogether
