Chychrun (knee) was recalled from AHL Tuscon on Saturday, TSN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Coach Rick Tocchet suggested Saturday that Chychrun (knee) could make his debut during Sunday's tilt against Vegas and the recall only furthers that narrative. However, he will need to be activated from injured reserve before that's possible.

Coyotes coach Rick Tocchet said Cychrun (knee) could make his season debut Sunday against the Golden Knights, Craig Morgan of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

A report from Tuesday indicated that Chychrun went on a conditioning assignment with AHL Tuscon, which evidently has gone well. Savvy fantasy owners in need of a defenseman should consider picking up the Florida native if he's available. He's a slick passer with an accurate shot and is attentive within the attacking zone.

Chychrun (knee) was reassigned to AHL Tuscon on a conditioning assignment Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Reports of Chychrun practicing with the team continue to surface, and a conditioning stint typically marks the end of the recovery process for a player trying to overcome a significant malady. It'll be worth checking your league's waiver wire to see if Arizona's 2016 first-round (16th overall) draft pick is available. The two-way rearguard was impressive on the way to seven goals, 13 assists, 109 hits and 99 blocked shots through 68 games as a rookie in 2016-17.

Chychrun (knee) will continue to practice with the club before being re-evaluated next week, Craig Morgan of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Chychrun will travel with the Coyotes in order to join them at practice on a day-to-day basis, but is at least still a week away from returning to the lineup. The blueliner has yet to make his 2017-18 debut after undergoing knee surgery during the offseason.

Chychrun (knee) is now "week-to-week" according to general manager John Chayka, Arizona Sports' Craig Morgan reports.

EDGE Analysis

After undergoing knee surgery in August, Chychrun is ahead of schedule and practicing with the team. He is still weeks away from returning as he continues to rehab and get back into shape, and the Coyotes could certainly use him on their blue line. The promising 19-year-old averaged over 16 minutes per game last year, and scored 20 points in 68 games. Based on the timeline given, Chychrun is unlikely to return until December or January, but his return to the ice is certainly good news.

Chychrun (knee) is expected to rejoin the Coyotes in Toronto on Monday in order to start practicing with the team, Craig Morgan of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

While general manager John Chayka was clear that Chychrun is returning to practice -- not playing -- it is certainly a step in the right direction. The defenseman has yet to make his 2017-18 debut after appearing in 68 games and registering 20 points as a rookie last season. If Arizona can get the 19-year-old back in the lineup -- along with Niklas Hjalmarsson (upper body) -- it will finally ice a healthy blue line.

Chychrun (knee) could return to practice at some point during Arizona's four-game Canadian road trip, Craig Morgan of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

While it appears that Chychrun still has a ways to go until he's cleared to return, practicing with the team would certainly a positive step in his rehab from surgery. The 19-year-old has also been skating for the last three weeks, but with Arizona currently sitting in last place in their division, there's no rush to bring back the electric defensemen.

Chychrun's (knee) status hasn't changed and there is still no return timeline in place, Craig Morgan of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Chychrun's been skating for over a week, so while there isn't a firm return date, he's clearly moving in the right direction. Additionally, he's obviously avoided any setbacks following his August surgery. When healthy, Chychrun is a candidate to provide value in deep settings, but it's still a wait-and-see situation right now.

Chychrun skated Saturday morning for the first time since undergoing knee surgery Aug. 4, Craig Morgan of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The young blue liner showed tremendous promise during his rookie campaign last season, and he's already ahead of schedule in his recovery from the knee injury. Chychrun's return timeline is still unknown, so he's off the fantasy grid for the time being. However, gamers can expect further updates over the coming weeks as he continues to progress toward game action.

Chychrun's (knee) rehab has been successful so far, and is ahead of schedule for his return Sarah McLellan of The Arizona Republic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Chychrun will still remain on the injured reserve and doesn't have an official return date, but it's good news for Arizona their blueliner is recovering well from his knee surgery in early August. The 19-year-old impressively logged 20 points in 68 games last season, and remains one of the top defensive prospects in the NHL. If his recovery keeps progressing, he'll certainly be a name to keep an eye on in the upcoming months.
