Phoenix Coyotes forward David Moss has left Thursday’s game against the New Jersey Devils with a lower-body injury, and will not return. That’s according to Todd Walsh of Fox Sports Arizona.
Moss took his last shift of the game just past the midway point of the second period, according to the Time on Ice report.
Big hit on Moss along the boards and he's slow to get up and make his way to the bench. #Coyotes going on the PP.
