Goligoski (illness) is expected to be back in the Coyotes lineup on Thursday.

Goligoski missed the Coyotes’ final game before the All Star break with an illness but the Coyotes announced that he is “fine” and will play Thursday. Goligoski has had a solid offensive season, posting 22 points (5G / 17A) in 49 games but playing in Arizona has led to a minus-21 rating.

The Coyotes have signed Alex Goligoski to a five-year contract worth $27.375 million.

Arizona traded for Goligoski’s rights last Thursday with the hope they would be able to sign him before July 1st. Goligoski is coming off of a 37-point (5G / 32A) season in 82 games with the Dallas Stars. He has averaged 38.3 points per season in his last three years with Dallas.

Based on the Stars morning skate it appears that Goligoski will draw back into the lineup after being a healthy scratch on Thursday.

Dallas came out on the wrong end of the deal in 2011 when they sent James Neal and Matt Niskanen to Pittsburgh for Goligoski. He has really come out of the gate on a sour note posting no point and a minus-10 rating through eight contests. He will be paired with Jordie Benn this evening.
