Ducks' Pavel Mintyukov: Good to play Wednesday

Mintyukov (lower body) will draw into the lineup for Wednesday's preseason game against Utah, per Eric Stephens of The Athletic.

Mintyukov had four goals, 28 points, 85 hits and 65 blocks in 63 contests with the Ducks in 2023-24. He's projected to open the upcoming campaign in a top-four role, but he might not see time with the man advantage.
