Anthony Mantha To Miss At Least Another Month
5 years agoDetroit Red Wings forward Anthony Mantha will be sidelined for at least one more month as he recovers from a rib injury sustained on Dec. 21 versus the Maple Leafs. The 25-year-old's absence is a huge loss to the Wings, as Mantha was in the midst of a career season prior to getting injured. The Quebec native had registered 24 points (12 goals, 12 assists) in 29 games and looked primed to easily surpass his previous career high in points (48), goals (25), assists (24) and shots on goal (198). Mantha's expected return to full health in late February could really bolster fantasy lineups prior to the start of playoffs. The Wings will play their final game prior to the All-Star break on Wednesday versus the Minnesota Wild.
