Jackman (lower body) is considered day-to-day, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports. The designation doesn't mean much, as it comes just a few hours after Jackman suffered the injury. He managed only 38 seconds of ice time in Sunday's game against the Stars, and he may not be available for Tuesday's game in Arizona.

Jackman suffered a lower body injury during the first period of Sunday's game against the Stars, and he will not return to the contest. Jackman suffered the injury on his second shift, after logging just 38 seconds of ice time. With Tomas Fleischmann recently acquired by the Ducks, Jackman was already in danger of losing his spot in the lineup. Fleischmann is expected to make his Ducks debut in Tuesday's game against Arizona.

The Ducks have signed Jackman to a one-year contract extension worth $700,000, Lance Pugmire of the Los Angeles Times reports.While the news is great for Jackman personally, his fantasy value this season has still been very limited. He does, however, have 84 penalty minutes on the year, leaving him a reasonable option if you're struggling in that category.

Jackman contributed a goal and five PIM in Tuesday's loss to the Panthers.Jackman cut the Ducks' deficit to three with his score at the 14:54 mark of the second period, but the game was pretty much well in hand for the Panthers by that point. The goal was just the fifth of the season for Jackman, but the penalty minutes weren't much of a surprise for the aggressive fourth liner. He paces the Ducks with 79 PIM on the campaign.

Jackman took pregame rushes in advance of Wednesday's matchup with the Sharks, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports. Jackman was activated from the injured reserve Wednesday, though it wasn't originally clear whether or not he would suit up for the New Year's Eve tilt. His participation in pregame warmups suggests he'll be available to provide the Ducks with offensive depth.

Jackman (head) was activated from injured reserve Wednesday. The activation would suggest that Jackman will be available for Wednesday's rematch with the Sharks. Jackman had been forced out of the game against San Jose prior to the Christmas break following a hit to the head, but it doesn't sound like he suffered any significant concussion symptoms. He'll be plugged back in on the Ducks' fourth line.

Jackman (head) received clearance to return to game action Wednesday, Curtis Pashelka of the San Jose Mercury News reports. It's not yet known if coach Bruce Boudreau will include Jackman in his lineup Wednesday versus the Sharks, against whom the winger first suffered the head injury following a punch to the head from John Scott. Though Scott will remain under suspension for Wednesday's contest to defuse the potential for a brawl ensuing, Jackman is still listed on injured reserve for the Ducks. Boudreau could just opt to have Jackman sit out an extra game before making his return over the weekend.

Jackman (head) was able to skate Monday, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports. It doesn't sound like Jackman has been cleared to take contact yet, making his return date relatively uncertain at this juncture. He's expected to miss his third straight game Wednesday.

Jackman (head) was placed on injured reserve Sunday, Kevin Kurz of CSN Bay Area reports. With Jackman unable to resume skating after taking a hit to the head last Monday, it would seem that the winger is suffering from the effects of a concussion. He'll be viewed as out indefinitely until he receives clearance to resume practicing.

Jackman will not return to Monday's game after taking a hit to the head from John Scott. Jackman should be considered day-to-day until the Ducks release further information on his apparent head injury. Fortunately for Jackman, the Ducks have a significant break before they play the Coyotes on Saturday.
