Arizona Coyotes defenseman Travis Dermott will miss the remainder of the season after being hit from behind by San Jose Sharks forward Luke Kunin on Sunday. The 27-year-old has been in and out of the club's lineup this season as he has only appeared in 50 games with two goals and seven points in that time. He has added 52 hits, 64 blocked shots, 38 shots on goal, and a minus-14 rating on the campaign. A veteran of 329 career regular-season contests, notching 16 goals and 62 points between the Maple Leafs, Canucks, and Coyotes. The Coyotes will miss the playoffs for the 10th time over the last 11 seasons, only entering via the qualifying round in the COVID-shortened 2019-20 season.
Arizona Coyotes defenseman Travis Dermott (undisclosed) is going to miss time with an injury suffered late in his team's 4-3 shootout win over the visiting Seattle Kraken. Dermott did not appear in the final six minutes of the third period or overtime while defenseman Michael Kesselring was recalled from the AHL's Tucson Roadrunners to take his place on the roster. The veteran is skating in his first season in Arizona and has recorded one assist, 13 shots, and 14 blocks across 10 games while averaging 17:29 of ice time per game. A second-round pick of the Maple Leafs in 2015, Dermott has skated in 289 regular-season games, recording 14 goals and 56 points between the Maple Leafs, Canucks, and Coyotes.
Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Travis Dermott has been traded to the Vancouver Canucks in exchange for a 2022 third-round pick. The Maple Leafs had to shed some salary to make way for the incoming Mark Giordano, and Dermott was the odd man out. He is a third-pairing defenseman who plays a quiet game, rarely showing up on the scoresheet or in the penalty box. Dermott carries a salary cap hit of $1,500,000 for this season and the 2022-23 season.
