Demers (lower body) won't be available for Tuesday's clash with Edmonton.

EDGE Analysis

The specifics surrounding Demers' lower-body issue remain unclear, but the Coyotes will also be without Oliver Ekman-Larsson (lower body) for the game. With both players out, Ilya Lyubushkin and Aaron Ness will draw into the lineup as the team's bottom defensive pair. Expect another update regarding Demers' health ahead of Thursday's game against Carolina.

Demers (undisclosed) is on the ice for warmups, indicating that he'll play in Saturday's game versus the Blackhawks, Richard Morin of The Arizona Republic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Demers will not have to miss any time with the undisclosed injury. Expect him to play in his usual defense-first role in the contest.

Demers (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision for Saturday's clash with Chicago, Craig Morgan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Confirmation on Demers' status for Saturday's contest likely won't surface until the teams take the ice for pregame warmups. If he's unable to go, Jordan Oesterle will draw into the lineup against the Blackhawks.

Demers recorded an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Demers has three assists through 11 games in January. The defenseman has managed only eight helpers to go with 68 hits, 62 blocked shots and 23 PIM in 45 contests this season. He's used in a mostly defensive role, but could see a boost in ice time if Oliver Ekman-Larsson (lower body) ends up missing any games.

Demers picked up an assist, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Demers has just two helpers in 11 games since returning from a knee injury. He makes up the defensive half of the Coyotes' top pairing with Oliver Ekman-Larsson. Demers has just seven assists to go with 63 hits, 57 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating in 41 contests this season.

Demers (knee) is expected to return to the lineup for Monday's game against the Predators, Alexander Kinkopf of the Coyotes' official website reports.

EDGE Analysis

Demers has spent the last six games on injured reserve, but the Coyotes will activate him from IR before Monday's contest. The 31-year-old blueliner doesn't have much fantasy upside with just five assists through 30 games, but he contributes well defensively with 42 hits and 41 blocked shots.

Demers (knee) is now considered day-to-day, Alexander Kinkopf of the Coyotes' official website reports.

EDGE Analysis

Demers has missed Arizona's last four games due to a knee injury, but he took part in Thursday's optional morning skate, so he should be ready to return sooner rather than later. Once he's given the green light, the 31-year-old will return to a top-four role for the Coyotes.

Demers (knee) has been designated for injured reserve, per the NHL media site.

EDGE Analysis

Considering Demers is expected to miss two weeks due to his knee injury, his placement on IR shouldn't come as a surprise. In 30 games this season, the blueliner has managed just five helpers, so his absence is unlikely to affect the majority of fantasy owners.

Demers will be out for a minimum of two weeks after sustaining a knee injury during Sunday's 4-3 win over the Blackhawks, Craig Morgan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The two-week timeline means Demers will miss Arizona's next seven games, at a minimum. There's a chance the defenseman needs minor surgery, so don't expect to see the 31-year-old defenseman dressing anytime soon.

Demers picked up an assist versus Columbus on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

While not exactly a goal scorer, fans and fantasy owners alike will be disappointed in the fact that Demers remains goalless in 27 games this season. At this point, the blueliner will be hard pressed to reach the 20-point mark, a threshold he last reached in 2017-18, and he should be considered a low-end fantasy option in most formats.
