The Ducks revealed a host of injuries when they conducted season-ending exit meetings Thursday, some that will affect next season.
Defensemen Hampus Lindholm and Sami Vatanen will each need shoulder surgery to repair torn labrums, general manager Bob Murray said.
Lindholm will need four to five months of recovery and Vatanen “is worse,” Murray said.
“Labrums, one front, one back,” Murray said. “Tough kids.”
Lindholm was injured in Game 4 of the first-round series against the Calgary Flames and Vatanen was injured in the same series.
Forwards Patrick Eaves and Rickard Rakell each have high-ankle sprains, although Murray said Eaves’ injury in the second round had more to do with a bone bruise where the two ankle bones come together.
