Comtois was reassigned to QMJHL Drummondville on Saturday, Josh Beneteau of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Comtois cracked the Opening Night roster and dropped jaws with two goals and five assists through his first 10 games, but the Quebec native sustained a lower-body injury, and the Ducks had little choice but to send him back to junior since he was only eligible to be on his conditioning assignment for 14 days. Comtois produced 92 goals and 104 assists over 180 games for Victoriaville of the QMJHL over three seasons between 2015-18.

Comtois (lower body) was sent to AHL San Diego on Saturday for conditioning purposes, Mikael Lalancette of TVA Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Comtois has missed the past eight games, so it's no surprise that the Ducks have placed him in the minors for conditioning. The Quebec native produced two goals and five assists over his first 10 NHL contests leading up to the unfortunate lower-body injury. He remains on injured reserve, but a conditioning assignment usually suggests that the player is on the verge of returning to action.

Comtois (lower body) is listed on injured reserve, per the NHL's official media site.

EDGE Analysis

Comtois will be eligible to return Nov. 1 against the Rangers. The 19-year-old rookie has been stellar for the Ducks, with the winger accumulating two goals and five assists through his first 10 games at the top level.

Comtois (lower body) is considered day-to-day and not in the lineup for Thursday's contest in Dallas.

EDGE Analysis

Comtois' lower-body injury will get the benefit of three days off and it's possible he misses no games at all. If the 19-year-old left winger misses an extended period, Joseph Blandisi is likely to absorb his minutes.

Comtois recorded an assist, two hits and five PIM in Wednesday's 4-1 home win over the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

Wait, this kid is a rookie? Comtois certainly isn't playing like one, as he has recorded exactly one point in six of his first seven NHL games. At this rate, It's tough to envision him being reassigned to Victoriaville of the QMJHL.

Comtois scored one goal on two shots in his NHL debut Wednesday, helping the Ducks to a 5-2 road win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Comtois saw 11:16 of ice time in the season opener. There should be plenty more where that came from for the 2017 second-round (50th overall) pick, as a handful of Ducks forwards are banged up to start the season.

Comtois will be on the Ducks' 23-man roster, Elliott Teaford of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

When Comtois signed his entry-level deal in March, it was probably a pipe dream that he'd still be with the parent club in early October. However, the Ducks are decimated with injuries up front, and the 2017 second-round (50th overall) pick dazzled to the tune of three goals and an assist over five preseason contests. He'll be an interesting DFS option in the infancy of the 2018-19 campaign.

Comtois signed an entry-level deal with the Ducks on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

After three years in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, Comtois accrued 87 goals and 184 points in 175 games. The 19-year-old has a 6-foot-2, 212-pound frame, so he has the looks of a strong power forward and brings some attitude as well with 77 PIM in 49 games this season. Comtois will likely spend the rest of the season in the minors, but he'll likely be given a look in next season's training camp to see if he can fit in with the top-nine forwards.
