Edmonton Oilers forward Zach Hyman will have season-ending surgery on Wednesday, head coach Kris Knoblauch confirmed.
Hyman, 32, departed after just 3:11 of ice time in Tuesday’s 4-1 win against the Dallas Stars in Game 4 of the Western Conference finals.
He left the ice following a first-period hit to his right shoulder from Stars forward Mason Marchment. Knoblauch would only confirm it was an upper-body injury.
“Zach’s season is mostly likely done,” Knoblauch said Wednesday morning. “He’s getting surgery today and it’ll be a while, so we’re not expecting him back for the playoffs.”
The Oilers lead 3-1 in the best-of-seven series with Game 5 on Thursday night in Dallas.
Hyman tallied two goals and an assist in Edmonton’s 6-1 win in Game 3 on Sunday, his only points in this series. He has 11 points (five goals, six assists) in 15 games this postseason.
Hyman recorded 44 points (27 goals, 17 assists) in 73 games in the regular season, his fourth with the Oilers after playing his first six seasons with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
