Carlsson, the No. 2 pick in the 2023 NHL Draft, sustained the injury after Calgary defenseman MacKenzie Weegar fell on his right side, cause his leg to buckle in a 3-0 loss to the Flames on Thursday.
"I'm glad nothing was really severely damaged, but I kind of wish we had him," Ducks coach Greg Cronin said following his team's 3-2 loss to the Seattle Kraken on Saturday.
Carlsson, who turns 19 on Tuesday, has recorded 15 points (eight goals, seven assists) in 23 games this season.
