24 Hudson Fasching RW

Fasching inked a two-year, two-way contract with the Coyotes on Friday.

Fasching spent the entirety of the 2018-19 season with AHL Tucson, notching 16 goals and 33 points in 64 games. The 2013 fourth-round pick will likely spend most, if not all of the upcoming campaign in the minors, so there's no reason for fantasy owners to track his status.

Fasching received a qualifying offer from the Coyotes on Tuesday.

Fasching spent the entirety of the 2018-19 season in the minors, picking up 16 goals and 33 points in 64 contests. He'll likely get an invite to Arizona's training camp, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him stick with the Coyotes' AHL affiliate again in 2019-20.

Fasching was reassigned to AHL Tucson on Friday.

Fasching was recalled Mar. 1 but didn't see any game action in his week with the Coyotes. The Wisconsin native has 25 points (12 goals, 13 assists) in 48 games at the AHL level this season.

Fasching was recalled from AHL Tucson on Friday.

Fasching, a former Sabre, was signed by the Coyotes to a two-way deal in the offseason. Arizona proceeded to send the 23-year-old down to the minors before the season began, and this is his first time being called up since. It's not a given that Fasching will get into the lineup with the Coyotes, but at the AHL level, he has 12 goals and 13 assists in 47 games.

Fasching was waived by the Coyotes on Tuesday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

Fasching penned a one-year, two-way deal with the Coyotes in July. He's only compiled three points over 22 NHL games with his former employer in the Sabres, but the Wisconsin native could get a fresh start with an Arizona club hoping to climb out of the cellar of the Pacific Division after another substandard 2017-18 season.

Fasching has signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Coyotes.

Fasching has just 22 career NHL games under his belt, all with the Sabres. He saw action in just five games with Buffalo last season and will likely remain in a fringe role with Arizona, looking to build off his 30-point campaign with AHL Rochester last season.

Fasching was handed a qualifying offer from the Coyotes on Monday, NHL.com reports.

The 22-year-old is now on the fast track to receiving his first NHL contract outside of an entry-level deal. Fasching is 6-foot-2, 209 pounds) which helps him battle for loose pucks and clear scoring lanes for his teammates, though fantasy owners probably aren't excited about him based on his scant output of three points through 22 NHL games -- all with Buffalo between 2015-18.

The Sabres traded Fasching to the Coyotes in exchange for Brandon Hickey and Mike Sislo on Thursday.

Fasching has appeared in 22 games with the Sabres over the past three seasons, totaling just one goal and three points over that span. The Coyotes are evidently hoping a change of scenery will help the 2013 fourth-round draft pick develop into a regular NHL contributor, but at this juncture there's no reason to believe Fasching will be a viable fantasy option in 2018-19.

Fasching was sent down to AHL Rochester on Monday.

Fasching was called up at the beginning of December, but he didn't make much of an impact. He played in five games, but he had zero points and only one shot on net.

Fasching was called up from AHL Rochester on Saturday, and he'll be in the lineup in favor of Matt Moulson against the Penguins.

Moulson has been getting power-play ice time this season (1:31 on average), and power-play defenseman Victor Antipin will be a healthy scratch as well, so there's reason to believe Fasching could see the man advantage should the opportunity present itself, but the projected role is virtually negligible since the team ranks 30th in that special teams category. The Wisconsin native appeared in 10 games last season, but he only notched one assist over that span.

Fasching was cut from training camp by the Sabres on Sunday.

It was a difficult 2016-17 season for Fasching, who appeared in 37 games for AHL Rochester and 10 games for the Sabres due to a groin injury that bothered him all season. Acquired in a trade with the Kings, Fasching has the size and skill to be a top-nine power forward, but since turning pro he hasn't had much success yet. The Sabres will be patient with Fasching and allow him to develop in the AHL before opening up a roster spot for him.

Fasching was returned to AHL Rochester on Saturday.

The Minnesota native recorded his first point on the season with an apple against the Penguins on Tuesday, but Fasching was handed a return ticket to the minors with the Sabres welcoming four regulars back from injury Saturday.

Fasching's assist on Sam Reinhart's goal Wednesday against Pittsburgh was his first point of the season.

Fasching's nifty assist came just two minutes into the third period -- he corralled a puck knocked down by Marcus Foligno and hit a streaking Reinhart with a soft backhand pass. A budding power forward, Fasching's season has been particularly frustrating due to a nagging groin injury; he's appeared in just 10 games with the Sabres. The team has been hit with a slew of injuries, allowing Fasching to see some NHL action, but he will likely start in the AHL again next season.

Fasching was recalled from AHL Rochester on Monday, Bill Hoppe of the Olean Times Herald reports.

The 21-year-old has made only six appearances with the big club this season, with none coming since Oct. 30. It's unclear if Fasching will have an opportunity to see regular action during his stint with the Sabres or if he'll merely act as insurance at forward, but even if he's able to find a spot in the lineup, he'll likely be resigned to bottom-six duties.
