Anthony Mantha, a forward for the Calgary Flames, will undergo surgery to repair an ACL injury this week. This injury has been ruled as season-ending, meaning he will miss the remainder of the 2024-25 NHL season.

The injury occurred on November 5 during a game against the Montreal Canadiens. Mantha took a hit behind the Montreal net and stayed down after receiving it, showing signs of distress.

Mantha had played in 13 games for the Flames, scoring four goals and three assists for a total of seven points. He averaged 13:54 of ice time and was plus/minus at +6 before being injured.

In 507 NHL games, Mantha has scored 146 goals and 157 assists for a total of 303 points. Despite his successful NHL career, this injury marks an unfortunate early end to his current season with the Calgary Flames[1][2][3].
