ANAHEIM --Anaheim Ducks goalie Viktor Fasth sustained a lower-body injury in pregame warm-ups Friday night and is being evaluated, the team said.
Fasth was expected to start against the Tampa Bay Lightning but Jonas Hiller was inserted after Fasth was hurt. Fasth missed 14 games earlier this season with a lower-body injury, and Frederik Andersen capably filled his spot.
The Ducks are trying to snap a five-game winless (0-3-2) streak while Tampa Bay has lost the first three games of a four-game road trip and been outscored 16-6 in that skid.
