The Anaheim Ducks could be without their star player for a while, as Trevor Zegras was injured during Wednesday night's preseason game versus the Arizona Coyotes. The Ducks went on to win the game 3-1, but Zegras left in the second period after taking a hard hit from Coyotes prospect forward Jan Jenik.

The hit occurred in the neutral zone, and it was an open-ice hit which made it even worse. The young star suffered an upper-body injury, and Ducks coach Dallas Eakins gave an update Thursday afternoon.

"We're sending him for a more in-depth look and hopefully we will have those results by the morning. So we're in a holding pattern on that."

The injury may end up not being serious, but it is definitely concerning that no results have come back yet. If Zegras were to miss time, it would be a big hit on a playoff hopeful Anaheim Ducks team.
