Arizona Coyotes’ Nick Schmaltz leaves season opener with upper-body injury
Arizona Coyotes center Nick Schmaltz will not be returning to Thursday night’s game against the Pittsburgh Penguins after suffering an upper-body injury.— Arizona Coyotes PR Schmaltz played just 2:26 of the game before he had to leave the game. There is currently no specific on-ice play that seems to have caused the injury for Schmaltz, but there will likely be an update from Coyotes head coach Andre Tourigny after the game.
While there wasn’t a ton of time for Schmaltz to do anything in the Coyotes season opener against the Penguins, he found himself on the ice for a goal against as the Pens stormed to an early 3-0 lead in the first 5:10 of the game. Schmaltz’s line with Clayton Keller and Travis Boyd found themselves even on the shot attempt differential at 1-1, and were slightly behind in expected goal differential at 0-0.03, both coming at even strength.
It’s a tough start to the season for Schmaltz, as he was looking to build on a career year in 2021-22. He finished the season with 23 goals, 36 assists, and 59 points in 63 games, including a Coyotes franchise record seven point game in March against the Ottawa Senators.
