Josh Manson To Miss Six Weeks Due To Injury
4 years agoAnaheim Ducks defenseman Josh Manson will be sidelined for the next six weeks due to an oblique muscle injury sustained in the first period of his team's 1-0 victory over the Minnesota Wild on Monday. Manson appeared to have suffered the injury while engaging physically with Wild forward Jordan Greenway as both players subsequently assessed roughing penalties. The 29-year-old is likely only fantasy relevant is deep leagues and has been held pointless (with just one shot, one block and three hits) through three games. Having contributed more than 100 hits and 65 blocks in each of the past five seasons, Manson should remain on an open injured reserve spot until he returns to full health.
