According to the team, Arizona Coyotes defenseman Jakob Chychrun and forward Ryan Dzingel are both day-to-day with upper-body injuries suffered in Friday’s game against the Florida Panthers.

Both were unavailable Saturday night as Arizona played the second half of a back-to-back at home, this time against Philadelphia.

Chychrun has just seven points through 26 games after back-to-back 10-plus goal seasons. However, he had a long pointless streak to start the season and has been heating up as of late. He’s playing nearly 25 minutes per game, not an easy task for such a flawed Coyotes team.

Dzingel has had injury issues all season, and because of that, he hasn’t found stability in the lineup. Flip-flopping between wing and center, he has just four points through 16 games this season.

Alex Galchenyuk and Cam Dineen were likely to draw into the lineup in place of Chychrun and Dzingel.
