Coyotes' Smith, Grossmann to return vs. Ducks

Tom Szczerbowski-USA TODAY Sports

Arizona Coyotes goalie Mike Smith and defenseman Nicklas Grossmann will both return from lower-body injuries against the Anaheim Ducks, head coach Dave Tippett told reporters Wednesday.

Smith missed just one game after suffering a minor lower-body issue in a win against the Montreal Canadiens on Thursday. He is sporting an 8-5-1 record with one shutout so far this season.

Grossmann, meanwhile, has been sidelined since Nov. 7, when he left during the first period against the New York Rangers. He has two goals and one assist in 13 games.
