Arizona Coyotes goaltender Mike Smith is day to day with a lower-body injury.
Anders Lindback will make his fourth start of the season in his place against the Winnipeg Jets on Saturday.
The 27-year-old is 2-3-0 with a 2.41 GAA and .915 save percentage on the year.
The Coyotes recalled 21-year-old goaltender Marek Langhamer from Rapid City of the ECHL to back up Lindback.
