Phil Kessel Out 2-3 Weeks With Foot Injury
3 years agoArizona Coyotes forward Phil Kessel will miss the start of training camp due to a foot injury that is expected to sideline him for two to three weeks. The 33-year-old reportedly showed up to the team's media day in a walking boot. Kessel, coming off a fairly strong second season in Arizona, posted 43 points (20 goals, 23 assists), 13 power-play points and 115 shots in 56 games in 2020-2021. The Wisconsin native is currently expected to go undrafted in most upcoming fantasy drafts (No. 188 in Yahoo preseason rankings), but he could provide value as the Yotes top-line right winger. Barring any setbacks, he should be available for Arizona on opening night on Oct. 14.
