McGinn was claimed off waivers by the Coyotes on Monday, ESPN.com's Pierre LeBrun reports. A flurry of trades over the last two days have left the Coyotes with some open spots on their roster, and it appears one of them will be plugged by McGinn. The 24-year-old winger showed some promise as a scorer while coming up through the QMJHL, but looks as though he'll probably settle in as little more than a third or fourth liner at the NHL level. That being said, with the Coyotes short on forward talent, McGinn should have more of an opportunity to play meaningful minutes than he enjoyed with either the Flyers or Sharks the past two seasons.

McGinn was placed on waivers by the Sharks on Sunday, Elliotte Friedman of Hockey Night in Canada reports. McGinn has been in-and-out of the lineup over the course of the season, playing in 33 games with the Sharks thus far. His placement on waivers Sunday could lead to an assignment in the minors, but his fate will be decided at some point before Monday concludes.

McGinn (upper body) was activated from injured reserve Saturday, Kevin Kurz of CSN Bay Area reports. McGinn missed about a month with the injury, which he suffered during the Sharks' Jan. 31 win over the Blackhawks. His activation will make him a lineup option for Saturday's tilt with the Senators, but it's not clear if coach Todd McLellan plans on using him. Even when he had been healthier earlier in the season, McGinn often jostled between a bottom-six forward role and hitting the press box as a healthy scratch.

McGinn (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday. The IR placement will prevent McGinn from suiting up for at least the next three games. The newly-recalled Daniil Tarasov could receive the first opportunity to claim McGinn's spot in the Sharks' bottom six forwards.

McGinn (undisclosed) did not skate in Sunday's practice, Kevin Kurz of CSN Bay Area reports. McGinn exited Saturday's contest against the Blackhawks in the first period and did not return due to the injury. His status for Monday's game against the Oilers appears to be in doubt, which could leave the door open for Daniil Tarasov to make his NHL debut.

McGinn left Saturday's 2-0 win over the Blackhawks in the first period due to an unspecified injury and didn't return, Kevin Kurz of CSN Bay Area reports. The early exit prevented the winger from accumulated any meaningful statistics during his 4:19 of ice time before departing. He'll be considered day-to-day in advance of the Sharks' next game Monday against the Oilers until the team provides an update on his status.

McGinn recorded an assist in Thursday's win over the Maple Leafs. After serving as a regular healthy scratch during various stretches earlier this season, McGinn has been in the lineup with increased frequency, but doesn't have much to show for it. The assist was his first point in six January contests, as scoring opportunities have been limited for McGinn while he remains confined to the fourth line.

McGinn will be scratched in favor of John Scott in Thursday's game against Edmonton, according to Kevin Kurz of CSN Bay Area. McGinn has been a disappointing signing for San Jose. He's been useful due to the injuries they're fighting through, but it's likely that McGinn will find himself scratched more often than not if the team gets healthy. That's doubly true if the team manages to get Raffi Torres back in January.

McGinn scored his first goal of the season, San Jose's only goal in a loss to Edmonton on Sunday. McGinn grabbed his first in a Sharks uniform, bringing his total to three points on the season. Don't expect big production from McGinn, who has been suiting up irregularly. What you see is what you get with McGinn.
