Jack Roslovic News

Roslovic left the morning skate early because he “cramped up,” so he will be a game-time decision vs. the Ducks. Roslovic has heated up recently, scoring two goals with one assist in his last five games.

The Coyotes need a forward after trading Dylan Strome and Brendan Perlini to Chicago for just Nick Schmaltz. The 30-year-old forward has appeared in just 22 career NHL games but has collected 11 points (5G / 6A) in 10 games with Tucson this season.

Roslovic has played in every game so far this season, but will give way to Nic Petan vs. the Panthers on Friday. The young centre played just 4:21 TOI yesterday and has averaged just 7:20 TOI/GM in 13 contests this season, amassing just two assists.

Kempe cleared waivers after playing just four games with the Coyotes this season and returns to the AHL where he had 18 goals and 19 assists (37 points) in 47 games last year.

Kempe failed to record a point in the first four games of the season and will be replaced by Josh Archibald on Tuesday.

Roslovic went back to the Moose during the Jets bye week but is set to continue his NHL career this weekend. The 2015 first-round pick (No.25 overall) has yet to record an NHL point, but he has registered 15 goals and 20 assists (35 points) in 32 game with Manitoba.

Kempe picked up two goals and two assists in 18 games with the Coyotes this season but has been a healthy scratch in the last five games. Kempe has been sent back to Tucson so the Coyotes could recall Dylan Strome.

Kempe, 29, was a fifth round pick (No.122 overall) in 2007 but has played in just six career games in North America, spending the last three seasons in KHL and Sweden before that. Kempe had one goal and two assists (three points) in his Tucson Roadrunners debut, earning a call-up to the big club.
