Ennis out indefinitely after suffering injury in Game 3
Edmonton Oilers forward Tyler Ennis is out indefinitely after suffering an injury Wednesday night in Game 3 against the Chicago Blackhawks, head coach Dave Tippett announced.
Ennis collided with Kirby Dach in the second period and was helped off the ice. He didn't return to the game - a 4-3 loss for the Oilers.

Ennis was acquired by the Oilers from the Ottawa Senators prior to the 2020 trade deadline in exchange for a fifth-round pick next year. The pending unrestricted free agent posted 37 points this season, including four in nine games after arriving in Edmonton.
The Oilers trail their best-of-five series 2-1 with Game 4 scheduled for Friday.
