The injury woes for the Anaheim Ducks continued on Monday night.
On the same night they got Ryan Getzlaf and Jakob Silfverberg back in the lineup, they lost forward Corey Perry to some sort of a lower body injury.
Perry exited the game after playing just 3:49 in the first period.
After the game Ducks coach Randy Carlyle said that Perry is being evaluated at a local hospital for the injury and that there was no other update at this time.
According to Ducks beat writer Eric Stephens of the OC Register Perry did not suffer a skate cut.
In 31 games this season Perry has scored six goals to go with 16 assists for the Ducks. The Ducks have been absolutely crushed by injuries this season, a development that has no doubt played a major role in their slow start.
The Ducks were 3-2 winners on Monday against the Carolina Hurricanes.
