The Arizona Coyotes lost Brad Richardson to a lower body injury midway through the second period of their 3-2 overtime loss Thursday against the Vancouver Canucks.

The forward was stretchered off the ice and taken to a local hospital with what the team called a lower body injury.

“We’ll get a full report tomorrow but we’re looking at a pretty significant injury,” Coyotes head coach Dave Tippett told the media in Vancouver after the game.

Richardson turned into an oncoming Nikita Tryamkin 11:23 into the second period and collapsed upon contact. He remained on the ice and called over Arizona’s trainers during an injury timeout before leaving on a stretcher with his right leg elevated.
