Bunting was assigned to the taxi squad Thursday, per CapFriendly.

EDGE Analysis

Bunting has four goals and an assist over five appearances since he joined the lineup. The 25-year-old is likely to be promoted back to the roster for Friday's game in Vegas.

Bunting scored a hat trick with two of the three goals coming on the power play in Monday's 5-2 win over the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Bunting took a turn on the Coyotes' top line with Nick Schmaltz and Conor Garland, and it worked out wonderfully. Bunting earned his first career hat trick in just his ninth NHL game -- he had two goals total in his previous eight contests. The 25-year-old winger is up to four goals and an assist through four contests this year. He's worth an add in deeper formats, as it's likely Bunting has earned himself a longer look in the lineup.

Bunting produced a goal and an assist with three shots in Wednesday's 9-3 loss to Colorado.

EDGE Analysis

Bunting's season debut was a bright spot in an otherwise dismal night for the Coyotes. The 25-year-old, who had spent the whole year with AHL Tucson, got the Coyotes on the board with a breakaway goal 4:41 into the game. He also picked up an assist on a Conor Garland goal late in the second period. Bunting has three points in six games this season with the Coyotes.

Bunting was promoted to the active roster Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Bunting is now available to make his season debut in Saturday's game versus the Sharks. The 25-year-old has produced 19 points over 16 AHL contests this season.

Bunting was added to the taxi squad Friday, CapFriendly reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old has spent all season with AHL Tuscon, racking up seven goals and 19 points through 16 games. Bunting has appeared in just five NHL games, all coming during the 2018-19 season.

Bunting was placed on waivers Monday, Arizona Coyotes Insider Craig Morgan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bunting was always going to be a long-shot for the Opening Night roster. The 25-year-old left wing will likely report to AHL Tucson, where he'll probably spend the bulk of the upcoming campaign.

Bunting signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Coyotes on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Bunting spent most of the 2018-19 campaign in the minors, racking up 19 goals and 41 points in 52 games, but he also made five appearances with the big club, scoring one goal over that span. The 23-year-old will likely have a similar role in 2019-20, so there's no reason for fantasy owners to have him on their radars.

The Coyotes extended Bunting a qualifying offer Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Bunting only appeared in five games with the big club this season, scoring one goal over that span, but he was pretty impressive during his time in the minors, racking up 19 goals and 41 points in 52 contests. The 2014 fourth-round pick will compete for a spot on Arizona's Opening Night roster during training camp.

The Coyotes assigned Bunting to AHL Tuscon on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Bunting joined the Coyotes as the extra forward for the team's three-game road trip, but he didn't draw in during the first two. Richard Panik (illness) will connect with the team in Vancouver, eliminating the necessity of Bunting's spot on the roster. He should remain among the first names considered for recall if injuries arise at the top level.

Bunting was recalled from AHL Tucson on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Assuming Bunting gets into the lineup for the Coyotes following his recall, the 23-year-old winger will have a chance to add to his NHL total of one goal for his only point in five games. He's flashed some serious scoring ability at the AHL level this season with 27 points in 31 games for the Roadrunners.
