Ryan Nugent-Hopkins' nightmare season continued Tuesday night in the desert.
The forward was forced from the Edmonton Oilers' game against the Arizona Coyotes with an undisclosed injury, the club announced.
Coach McLellan did not have an update on @RNH_93's departure tonight. He'll be evaluated again tomorrow morning in San Jose.

The 22-year-old took a high stick in the first period but was able to stay in the game, but was rocked by a big hit later, Connor Murphy nailing him with a shoulder to the head.
Injuries have derailed Nugent-Hopkins' fifth season. He went into Tuesday's game with 33 points in 51 games. He played 9:20.
