The Anaheim Ducks are still without their captain, Ryan Getzlaf, and his linemate, Nick Ritchie, who were each ruled out for the game with an upper-body injury. This will be the second straight game they have missed. "Everybody is faced with the challenge of injuries," coach Randy Carlyle said. "We were planning on having players that were going to be unavailable, but you don't limit them until it actually happens. They're two big players in our lineup but there's an opportunity for some others to move up in the lineup and show us what they've got." Last season, the Ducks struggled to slow down the speedy young forwards of the Coyotes. In five games, Max Domi scored three goals and assisted on four and Duclair had a hat trick in Anaheim. The Ducks have lost their past two home games, getting outscored 9-1. "That's part of the wave of skill and speed that's in the NHL now," Carlyle said. "Don't allow them to play that give-and-go game because that's where they really survive and they thrive in that."
