Arizona Coyotes defenseman Dysin Mayo entered the NHL’s COVID-19 protocol on Saturday, the team announced.
Mayo becomes the third Coyote in COVID protocol. He joins forwards Ryan Dzingel and Antoine Roussel.
If Mayo is subject to only a five-day quarantine, he would miss only Arizona’s next two games. He could be eligible to return on Jan. 28th, a home game against the Boston Bruins.
An unexpected regular in the Coyotes' lineup this season, Mayo has five points in 34 games. He’s impressed defensively, however, earning the right to 20:49 of ice time per game and only a -2 rating on a porous Coyotes team.
The 25-year-old was Arizona's 133rd overall selection back in 2014.
