Anaheim Ducks defenseman Hampus Lindholm will miss six weeks with a fractured left wrist, the team announced Thursday.
Lindholm, 27, suffered the injury during Saturday's overtime loss against the Vegas Golden Knights. He missed the previous three games with a lower-body injury.
The Swedish blue-liner ranks second on the club in average ice time per game (22:02) and has tallied two goals and six points through 18 outings this season.
Anaheim has lost eight consecutive contests and owns the second-worst points percentage (.370) in the league entering Thursday's action.
