Anaheim placed Tropp on waivers Thursday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old forward has only appeared in one NHL contest since 2015-16, so he wasn't considered a serious contender to make the Ducks' Opening Night roster. If he goes unclaimed, Tropp will be assigned to AHL San Diego, where he'll likely remain for the rest of the 2017-18 campaign.

Tropp was sent back to the AHL's San Diego Gulls on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old forward will be headed back to San Diego after making one NHL appearance in Arizona on Monday. Tropp recorded 9:28 of ice time and added two hits. He's headed back to the San Diego Gulls, where he is still leading the team with 12 goals and 25 assists over 42 games -- meaning possible future fantasy value. Jarod Boll will likely replace Tropp in the Sharks' bottom six.

The Ducks recalled Tropp from AHL San Diego on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Antoine Vermette was handed an automatic 10-game suspension Wednesday for making contact with an official, so Tropp will round out the Ducks' depth up front while Vermette is unavailable. Tropp has been highly productive in the minors this season, racking up 37 points (12 goals, 25 assists) in 42 games with AHL San Diego. The 27-year-old winger's first chance to crack the lineup will come Friday against the Panthers.

Tropp was reassigned to AHL San Diego on Sunday, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tropp did not draw into a game while up with the big club and will return to the minors to get some more playing time. His demotion could indicate that Jakob Silfverberg (upper body) is nearing a return.

Tropp was called up from AHL San Diego on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old hasn't played in the big leagues since the 2014-15 season, so it's tough to assume what his production level will be if he finds his way onto the ice. However, he has 29 points in 32 games in the AHL, so he has been a hot shooter this year.

Tropp has re-signed with the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Tropp spent all of the 2015-16 campaign in the AHL, piling up 39 points in 66 games while playing in Albany and San Diego. Most likely, he'll reprise his role as an organizational depth player this season.

Tropp was sent to AHL San Diego on Monday, Eric Stephens of the Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tropp joins Anton Khudobin, Michael Sgarbossa, and Stefan Noesen in the move to San Diego for the remaining two games left on the regular season schedule. At 26 years old, Tropp made 61 appearances for the Blue Jackets this season before ultimately being traded to the Ducks, although it seems that his role with Anaheim's upcoming playoff run will be limited, if he even plays at all.

Tropp was promoted to the Ducks from AHL San Diego on Saturday, The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tropp was acquired from the Blackhawks at this year's trade deadline, but he's yet to make his debut with the Ducks. However, playing time in the NHL may be imminent for Tropp since the Ducks have locked up a spot in the playoffs and a couple of the team's forwards reportedly didn't travel to Colorado for Saturday's match, including Rickard Rakell (appendix). Still, he's safe to pass over in fantasy leagues given that he's just now getting a look.

Tropp was traded to the Ducks on Monday in exchange for Tim Jackman and a seventh-round pick in 2017, TSN's Frank Seravalli reports.

EDGE Analysis

Last June, Tropp was acquired by the Blackhawks in a mega-deal that saw Brandon Saad land in Columbus. Unfortunately, the Michigan native hasn't appeared in a single NHL game this season and should stay limited to an organizational depth role despite heading West.

Tropp was acquired Tuesday by the Blackhawks along with forwards Marko Dano, Artem Anisimov, Jeremy Morin, and a 2016 fourth-round draft pick. In return, the Blue Jackets will receive forwards Brandon Saad, Alex Broadhurst, and defenseman Michael Paliotta. Tropp should receive the opportunity to claim a fourth-line gig with the Blackhawks out of training camp this fall. The 25-year-old collected eight points over 61 games last season, and shouldn't be expected to see those outputs increase much further in 2015-16.
