McBain's ankle injury will likely take weeks to heal rather than days, per coach Andre Tourigny, Arizona Coyotes Insider Craig Morgan reports.

EDGE Analysis

McBain signed an entry-level contract with Arizona on Monday, but it sounds like his Coyotes debut could be weeks away as he heals from an ankle injury. With just over a month left in the regular season and Arizona out of playoff contention, it's possible that McBain won't be able to make his debut in 2021-22 if his recovery process takes longer than expected.
