Arizona Coyotes defenseman Jakob Chychrun will miss two-to-four weeks with a lower-body injury, the team announced Monday.
Boston Bruins defenseman Derek Forbort hit Chychrun awkwardly into the boards Saturday night.
The 23-year-old is among the top players rumored to be moved ahead of the March 21 trade deadline. The St. Louis Blues, Carolina Hurricanes, Florida Panthers, Los Angeles Kings, Anaheim Ducks, and Bruins are reportedly among the serious contenders for his services.
Chychrun has recorded 21 points in 47 games this season. He's signed for three more years at a $4.6-million cap hit.
