Dan Sexton injury update.
Ducks right wing Dan Sexton
will have surgery Thursday to repair his broken nose. He is expected to
be out of the lineup for two weeks.
Head coach Randy Carlyle said Tuesday that "His nose is pretty mushed up. It's not just a simple break. There are multiple fractures of the nose."
Sexton broke his nose in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Detroit Red Wings, when he was struck in the face by a shot off the stick of forrmer Duck Ruslan Salei in the first period. Sexton didn't return to the game.
