Arizona Coyotes announced late last night after their game that goaltender Darcy Kuemper will be out week-to-week with a lower body injury. Kuemper suffered the injury late in the third period versus the Minnesota Wild.

This is a huge blow to the Coyotes. Kuemper has been having a Vezina caliber season to this point, coming into Thursday night's game with a 1.97 goals against average and a .935 save percentage. Luckily for the Coyotes, they have a strong backup goalie in Antti Raanta who has registered a 2.72 goals against average along with a .919 save percentage.
With the injury to Kuemper, the Coyotes have called up Adin Hill to serve as Raanta's backup until Kuemper is able to return.
