Upshall Out With ACL Injury

Phoenix Coyotes forward Scottie Upshall is expected to miss the remainder of the season with a torn ACL in his right knee.  Upshall was injured last Thursday night in a game against the Calgary Flames.  The injury will require surgery. 

The 26-year-old is the leading goal-scorer on the surprising Coyotes with a career high 18 goals this season.  Upshall has 32 points and a plus-5 rating in 49 games with Phoenix.

Upshall was originally selected sixth overall by the Nashville Predators in the 2002 draft.
