Mrazek's Hip Surgery Ends Season, Ducks Face Chaos
Anaheim goalie Petr Mrazek goes under the knife for hip surgery and shuts down his season just as the Ducks build some momentum before the Olympic break. The veteran netminder, flipped to Anaheim from Detroit last summer in the Gibson blockbuster, logged only 10 games with shaky numbers that screamed backup struggles. Now the Ducks scramble for crease stability in a Pacific Division chase where every point counts, and Red Wings flashbacks hit hard for those who remember his injury history.
