The Arizona Coyotes will be without one of their centers as they attempt to regain their footing in the Pacific Division playoff race.
Boyd Gordon was injured when blocking a shot during Thursday night’s game against the Chicago Blackhawks.
The Coyotes’ website detailed the contributions of Gordon to the team’s success this season:
Gordon is averaging 11:57 of ice time and has notched just two assists in 47 games this season, but the 32-year-old center is a key contributor in the face-off circles for the Coyotes, who lead the NHL with a 53.
