Status report
The Ducks did not hold a morning skate following a 5-4 overtime win against the Florida Panthers on Monday. … Ovechkin, a forward who has missed the past two games, will be a game-time decision. … Kuemper starts after Lindgren played each back-to-back game against the New York Rangers on Saturday and Sunday. … Alexeyev will play after being a healthy scratch for the past 24 games.
