ANAHEIM – Ducks enforcer George Parros had laser surgery on his left eye Monday to correct a torn retina.

He is expected to be out four weeks. That timetable has Parros missing 12 games and returning Dec. 5.

Parros suffered the injury Friday during the team’s practice in Detroit when he was hit by a deflected puck.

Without Parros, much of the enforcer duties fall to Sheldon Brookbank, whom Parros recently praised for his fighting skills.

SELANNE BOIL OVER

The worst part for Teemu Selanne wasn’t being ejected or missing the end of the game or having his reputation take a hit.

No, the worst part was coming home and having to explain to his children why daddy got kicked out of the game.

They asked what I said,” Selanne said Monday in reference to the multiple misconduct penalties he received Saturday in Detroit. “I made up a story. I was a bad example. I can’t repeat what I sometimes say.”

Earlier in the third period of a game the Ducks would lose 5-0, Selanne received two- and 10-minute misconducts for complaining to the referees. He then was given a game misconduct.

“They tried to read my lips to figure out what I said,” Selanne said of his three kids. “But they couldn’t this time.”

Since the 1997-98 season, Selanne has been assessed five 10-minute misconducts, the previous most recent one coming Feb. 19, 2011, at St. Louis.

“We were frustrated,” he said of the recent infractions. “We all were frustrated about the trip. That’s what happens when you lose.”

MISFIRING

Through 14 games, the Ducks have scored just 27 goals, 29th among the NHL’s 30 teams. Only the New York Islanders have fewer (23 in 11 games).

“You can’t win in the pee-wee level with that,” Selanne said. “You gotta raise that … that’s bad.”

Beyond Selanne, Ryan Getzlaf, Corey Perry and Bobby Ryan, the Ducks have received just three other goals from their forwards. Saku Koivu, Andrew Cogliano and Maxime Macenauer have scored one apiece.

Asked if all the zeros could start weighing the Ducks’ younger players, Getzlaf said that shouldn’t be the case.

“We’re not that type of group,” the team’s captain said. “We don’t put a lot of pressure on the young guys to perform that those kinds of levels. They’re here to create energy and chip in where they can.”
