TORONTO — Ducks captain Ryan Getzlaf, who has been sidelined for the last three weeks becasue of multiple sinus fractures, has resumed skating this week and is expected to return to the lineup sometime after next week’s NHL All-Star break.

“He skated yesterday and he was fine,” Carlyle said. “He’s skating again today. We hope that the progress continues and we think the healing is well on his way. There’s a possibility that he’ll play sometime after the All-Star break. We don’t know how soon after the All-Star break. But that’s our target.”

The Ducks have gone 7-3 in the games without Getzlaf in the lineup. The big center had 13 goals and 24 assists in 40 games before he went down.
