Viktor Fasth, who has been nursing an upper-body injury, took shots at practice on Thursday and seems to be nearing a return to action. In fact, he could be ready to dress Saturday against the Blues. "It's good to be back on the ice out there," said Fasth, who should be ready Saturday in St. Louis. "Except for not stopping any pucks, I felt pretty good." ... Jonas Hiller has re-established himself as the Ducks' starter but Fasth is one of the NHL's best backups and should be added to rosters this weekend.
