Isac Lundestrom To Miss Six Weeks

December 3, 2022 at 1:31 pm CDT | by Brian La Rose 1 Comment

It has been a tough season for Anaheim’s Isac Lundestrom and things just got a little worse for him as the team announced (Twitter link) that the center will miss the next six weeks due to a fractured finger.  The injury was sustained during Thursday’s loss to Dallas.

The 23-year-old had a breakout year last season that saw him put up 29 points in 80 games after putting up just 15 over his first three NHL campaigns in limited action.  That was enough for Anaheim to hand him a two-year bridge deal this summer, one that carries a cap hit of $1.8MM.  However, Lundestrom has struggled through the first quarter of this season as he has just a goal and five assists through 24 games although he is among the team leaders in shorthanded ice time.

While Pavol Regenda is likely to take his place in the lineup for the time being as the only extra forward with the team on their current road trip, Lundestrom’s absence creates an opportunity for Mason McTavish to play down the middle more frequently for the time being.  Anaheim has deployed the rookie on the wing at times this season as teams often do with young centers to ease them in but McTavish is anchoring the fourth line this afternoon against Minnesota.

    The fact he’s on the fourth line is disturbing.
