Arizona Coyotes forward Nick Schmaltz will miss the remainder of the season with a lower-body injury, the team announced.
The news is a big blow for the Coyotes, as Schmaltz - who has been out since Dec. 30 - was given an original prognosis of week to week.
Since joining the team from the Chicago Blackhawks via trade Nov. 25, Schmaltz had been red-hot, tallying five goals and 14 points in 17 games.
