Vatanen is a key member of the Ducks defense and will be missed. With Anaheim up 3-0 in the series they are able to take some risk and sit the veteran out so he can rest up and heal from the injury.

Anaheim will look to pull off the sweep on the road. Fans can tune in and watch tonight’s game on the USA network. As more information surfaces on the Ducks and their roster moves we will keep you up to date.
