Matt Dumba is out week to week for the Coyotes with an upper-body injury, coach Andre Tourigny said Wednesday.
Dumba left a 5-2 win against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Monday early in the first period after going hard into the boards.
Tourigny said Dumba did not make the road trip, which begins at the Florida Panthers on Wednesday (7 p.m. ET; SCRIPPS, BSFL). The Coyotes then visit the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday and the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday prior to their bye week and the NHL All-Star break.
"He is not on the trip and then after, we're on the break so I can say it is week to week or whatever it is," Tourigny said. "He will not play before the break, for sure."
Arizona recalled defenseman Victor Soderstrom from Tucson of the American Hockey League on Tuesday but he is not expected to play Wednesday.
The Coyotes used seven defensemen on Monday, but Tourigny expects forward Nick Schmaltz to return against the Panthers after missing the previous three games with an injury.
