Troy Terry to Miss 5-6 Months After Undergoing Hip Surgery

Anaheim Ducks

In a significant blow to the Anaheim Ducks, forward Troy Terry will be sidelined for the start of the upcoming season following hip surgery. The Ducks announced that Terry is expected to make a full recovery in five to six months after the procedure was performed on June 9 to address hip impingement and a labral tear.

The 28-year-old forward has already begun the rehabilitation process, which will be crucial for his return. Terry enjoyed a productive regular season last year, tallying 19 goals and 38 assists. He also made his playoff debut, contributing three goals and eight assists in 12 games as the Ducks advanced to the second round.

Despite the team’s recent struggles during a seven-year postseason drought, Terry has been a standout performer. His consistent offensive output is highlighted by four career seasons with 20 or more goals and five consecutive campaigns with at least 50 points. His career-high of 67 points came during the 2021-22 season, showcasing his skill and importance to the Ducks’ lineup.
