If you’re wondering if the Ducks have a second move lined up, it doesn’t appear to be that way (yet). According to Daily Faceoff’s Frank Seravalli, the team wants their American Hockey League team to make the postseason and with John Gibson’s injury, they had to call up Oscar Dansk.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
There&#39;s no dot to connect between Ville Husso trade to Anaheim and a potential John Gibson trade.
In AHL San Diego, Calle Clang is out month-to-month and Oscar Dansk is only other goalie with experience. They want San Diego to make playoffs.
Gibson expected back this week.

&nbsp;
Husso was selected in the fourth round of the 2014 draft by the St. Louis Blues, making his debut with them in 2020-21. His 2021-22 season remains the best of his career, posting a .919 save percentage and 2.56 goals against average in 40 games played. That off-season he was traded to the Red Wings.
Although he started his first season with the Wings off well, he ended the season with an .896 save percentage and 3.11 goals against average in 56 games played. Husso played just 19 games in 2023-24 before an injury and played just nine games with the Wings in 2024-25. Most of his season has been spent with the Grand Rapids Griffins of the AHL, posting a .912 save percentage and 2.70 goals against average.
<h2>Trevor Zegras suspended for three games</h2>
Sticking with the Ducks… and the Red Wings, Ducks forward Trevor Zegras was suspended for three games on Monday after hitting Red Wings forward Michael Rasmussen in the head. The official call was interference.

Anaheim’s Trevor Zegras has been suspended for three games for interference against Detroit’s Michael Rasmussen. <a href="https://t.co/HziR0pQ04t">https://t.co/HziR0pQ04t</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
&nbsp;
Zegras’ hit occurred late in the second period, with Rasmussen leaving the game. The hit was not penalized and Rasmussen is day-to-day with an upper-body injury.
As for Zegras, it’s been a rough couple of seasons for the 2019 ninth-round selection. After back-to-back 23-goal, 60+ point seasons, he struggled with injury and performance in 2023-24, scoring six goals and 15 points in 31 games. So far this season, another season in which he’s dealt with injuries, the 23-year-old has seven goals and 16 points in 34 games.
Zegras will return to the lineup for the Ducks on Mar. 4 against the Edmonton Oilers.
<h2>Ryan Hartman’s suspension reduced to eight games</h2>
In other suspension news, Ryan Hartman’s appeal dropped his 10-game suspension down to eight games.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
Commissioner Gary Bettman upholds suspension of Wild’s Ryan Hartman; Reduces length from 10 to eight games. <a href="https://t.co/LD9MhtSzds">https://t.co/LD9MhtSzds</a> <a href="https://t.co/VesT9LFoBL">pic.twitter.com/VesT9LFoBL</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
&nbsp;
The incident happened back on Feb. 1 when Hartman’s Minnesota Wild took on the Ottawa Senators. Hartman pushed Senators forward Tim Stützle’s head into the ice and was ejected from the game, with the 10-game suspension being handed down a few days later.  The Wild forward has a lengthy suspension history, as he was suspended twice in the 2023-24 and two other times in his past.
With the reduction in the suspension, Hartman is eligible to return to the Wild lineup on Mar. 4 against the Seattle Kraken. This season, he has seven goals and 17 points in 48 games, with a career-high of 34 goals and 65 points back in 2021-22.
