Arizona Coyotes defenseman Niklas Hjalmarsson won't suit up again this season, as he's ruled out for the rest of the year with an upper-body injury. The team will be left with a depleted blue line, as Jason Demers went down with a season-ending upper-body injury as well last week. Hjalmarsson provided a team-leading 2.5 blocks per game in his debut season in the desert, but it was a tough year for him, as he managed to suit up for only 48 games. Luke Schenn moved up in the lineup last game to eat up some of Hjalmarsson's minutes, while 22-year-old Trevor Murphy made his NHL debut. Murphy has 30 points in 56 AHL games this season and it will be interesting to see if he can also produce on the highest level. He will at least have a chance to impress.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
