Groulx was scratched for the Ducks' last six games in February. - Groulx saw semi-regular playing time in January, but that dried up with the Ducks getting closer to full health in February.

Groulx has just two assists with 27 shots on net, 66 hits and 23 blocked shots over 32 appearances this season, so he's not really an option in fantasy even if he can stick in the lineup. |

The 23-year-old Groulx hasn't gotten on the scoresheet since October 24, and he's been scratched for 18 of the 35 games since that contest in Columbus. He has one assist, 20 shots on net and 38 hits through 23 outings this season, and if he can fend off Ross Johnston for playing time, it'll likely be in a fourth-line role. |

He could lose his place in the lineup once Mason McTavish (upper body), Trevor Zegras (lower body) and Max Jones (upper body) return. |
