Dotchin did not receive a qualifying offer from the Blues and will become a UFA on Friday, Patrick Williams of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dotchin spent all of the 2019-20 campaign with AHL St. Louis, where he had eight points in 37 contests. He's amassed 23 points in 103 games at the NHL level between the Lightning and the Ducks, but Dotchin will likely have to settle for a minor-league deal in 2020-21. He is most likely to serve as organizational depth on the blue line.

Dotchin signed a one-year, two-way deal with St. Louis on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Dotchin split time between Anaheim and AHL San Diego last season but has 103 NHL games under his belt. The 6-foot-3 defenseman joins a handful of other depth signings by St. Louis today and could fight for a depth role on the NHL roster.

Dotchin didn't receive a qualifying offer from Anaheim on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Dotchin was pretty ineffective during his time with the Ducks this season, picking up one assist while posting a minus-4 rating in 20 games, so Anaheim shouldn't have much trouble replacing his production in 2019-20. The 2012 sixth-round pick should, however, be able to land a two-way deal with a new club with relative ease this offseason.

Dotchin was reassigned to AHL San Deigo on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Dotchin failed to make a strong impression with the Ducks, as he heads back to the minors having accumulated just one point (an assist) through his first 20 games for a club that has struggled virtually all year on both ends of the ice. It would be very surprising if Dotchin ends up receiving a qualifying offer from the Ducks as a restricted free agent this summer.

Dotchin was called up from AHL San Diego on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Dotchin could be utilized in Friday's road game against the Flames. After all, Cam Fowler is dealing with an undisclosed injury that he sustained in Tuesday's game against the Canucks, and the former is on hand as insurance in case the more established defenseman doesn't feel well enough to suit up.

The Ducks sent Dotchin back to AHL San Diego on Thursday, Elliott Teaford of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dotchin joined the top team during the All-Star break to get a breather, but he'll retake his spot with the minor-league squad as the second half fires up. Jaycob Megna replaces him on the active roster, but Dotchin should remain on the shortlist for recall should injuries hit along the blue line.

The Ducks summoned Dotchin from the AHL ranks Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
It appears Dotchin is headed for some time off with the All-Star break ahead, allowing some of the Ducks roster to head to the minors for some extra action. It's unclear if he will stick around when the second half opens Feb. 2 against the Jets, but the 24-year-old blueliner has pieced together three points -- two goals and one assist -- through 11 minor-league contests.

The Ducks assigned Dotchin to AHL San Diego on Wednesday, Eric Stephens of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dotchin has only averaged 10:58 of ice time during the four games he's appeared in since being promoted on Jan. 7, so this move doesn't come as a surprise. Anaheim recalled fellow defenseman Andrej Sustr in a corresponding move Wednesday, so Dotchin will remain in the minors for the foreseeable future.

Dotchin was recalled from AHL San Diego on Monday, Elliott Teaford of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
A day after being sent down to the minors, Dotchin finds himself back in the NHL. With just a single assist over 16 NHL appearances this season, the 24-year-old's fantasy value is nonexistent.

Dotchin was sent down to AHL San Diego on Sunday, Eric Stephens of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dotchin's demotion is good news for Cam Fowler (face), who is expected to return Sunday. The 24-year-old will likely continue bouncing between the NHL and AHL levels for the rest of the season and his fantasy value will be virtually nonexistent.
