The Coyotes recalled Chaput from AHL Tucson on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old got his name called to the big club for his second stint this season, however, he's failed to suit up in game action. Chaput has had a nice season in the minors, registering 10 goals and 15 points in 22 AHL games. His first chance to suit up in NHL action this season is Tuesday against St. Louis, but barring injury, he'll likely be stuck in the press box.

The Coyotes assigned Chaput to AHL Tucson on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Chaput has been with the big club since Nov. 30 but didn't slot into a game. The 27-year-old forward has been solid in the minors this year with 12 points over 15 games, but his NHL opportunities could be sporadic due to the wealth of young talent in Arizona.

The Coyotes recalled Chaput from AHL Tucson on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Chaput's promotion indicates Lawson Crouse (upper body) likely won't be ready to rejoin the lineup Saturday against San Jose. The 27-year-old forward has racked up nine goals and 12 points in 15 AHL appearances this season.

The Coyotes assigned Chaput to AHL Tucson on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Jordan Oesterle (head) is considered questionable for Tuesday's matchup with Calgary, so Arizona is sending Chaput down to make room for defenseman Kyle Capobianco on the roster. The 27-year-old forward failed to crack the lineup during his brief two-game stay with the big club.

The Coyotes recalled Chaput from AHL Tucson on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Chaput was dished to Arizona from Montreal at the trade deadline last season, and received his first call up with his new club. The 27-year-old will add some depth to the forward group, as he's played 167 career NHL games, potting six goals and 21 points in that span.

Chaput was traded to Arizona from Montreal for winger Jordan Weal on Monday, Pierre LeBrun of TSN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Chaput was displaced from the Montreal lineup once the Habs traded for Nate Thompson and was moved to add some depth to the wing. With just five assists in 32 games, the 26-year-old center can be safely ignored in most formats.

Chaput cleared waivers and will rejoin AHL Laval, Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

Chaput's spot on the roster is taken by Nate Thompson, who was acquired from the Kings earlier this week. His greatest asset was his work at the faceoff circle, where he won 50.8 percent of his draws, second on the Canadiens.

Chaput will be placed on waivers Tuesday, Eric Engels of Sportsnet.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Canadiens have not confirmed the move, but Chaput is expected to wind up waivers Tuesday at noon eastern time. If he goes unclaimed, the 26-year-old will report to AHL Laval.

Chaput had an assist, a shot on net and three hits in Friday's 4-1 win over the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

Chaput used one of those three hits to knock Artemi Panarin off the puck at center ice, which triggered a sequence ending when Tomas Tatar pocketed a rebound for Montreal's first goal. The assist snapped a 15-game point drought for Chaput, who plies his craft on the fourth line and is rarely on the scoresheet. The 26-year-old forward has five assists in 27 games.

Chaput recorded a team-high seven hits in Monday's 4-0 loss to Boston.

EDGE Analysis

Chaput is not known for his physical game, so consider the seven hits a bonus. He's been Montreal's best man on draws since coming up from AHL Laval, which could keep him around, but ultimately is utterly replaceable.
