75 Kyle Capobianco D

Capobianco was reassigned to AHL Tucson on Sunday.

Capobianco's demotion is a good sign for the potential availability of Oliver Ekman-Larsson (lower body) and/or Ilya Lyubushkin (illness) for Tuesday's game against Edmonton. The 22-year-old Capobianco has appeared in nine games for the Coyotes this season, with one goal to show for his efforts.

Oliver Ekman-Larsson is dealing with a lower-body injury, so Capobianco will be on hand as an insurance policy for Saturday's clash with Chicago. The 22-year-old blueliner has potted one goal in eight appearances with the big club this campaign.

Capobianco will return to the minors during the Coyotes' bye week, which ends Jan. 29 when they visit the Ducks. It's unclear if Capobianco will get called up again after the break, as Jordan Oesterle (lower body) may be ready to play again by that time.

Capobianco's demotion could be an indication that Jason Demers (lower body) and/or Jordan Oesterle (head) will be cleared to return to the lineup against Minnesota on Saturday. While Capobianco figures to remain atop the list of potential call-ups throughout the year, he will likely play the bulk of his games in the minors.

Jordan Oesterle is dealing with a head injury ahead of Tuesday's matchup with Calgary, so Capobianco will be on hand as an insurance policy in case he's unable to go. The 22-year-old blueliner has picked up one goal in six appearances with the big club this season.

The Coyotes recalled Capobianco from AHL Tucson on Monday.

Niklas Hjalmarsson is out for about three months with a cracked fibula, so the Coyotes will afford 22-year-old blueliner Capobianco the first call up. However, it's unsettled whether Capobianco can be a long-term replacement for Hjalmarsson. The two defensemen play different styles, as Hjalmarsson is a stay-at-home player while Capobianco racked up 32 points in 40 AHL games last year. Capobianco's first chance to play will be Tuesday in Winnipeg.

The defender was with the parent club for three games, but served as a healthy scratch each time. Capobianco will now have a chance to get regular playing time in the minors. Ilya Lyubushkin was called up in a related move.

The Coyotes only had six defensemen on their roster prior to Capobianco's promotion, so he'll round out the team's blue-line depth for the foreseeable future. The 2015 third-round pick racked up seven goals and 32 points in 40 minor-league appearances last season, so he's clearly capable of contributing offensively from the back end.

Capobianco (lower body) made his preseason debut Thursday against Vancouver, racking up three shots on goal while registering 19:28 of ice time.

Capobianco was highly productive in the minors last season, racking up seven goals and 32 points in 40 appearances.

Capobianco (lower body) is listed on injured reserve, per the NHL's official media site.

Capobianco has already been ruled out of the remainder of the campaign due to a lower-body injury, so this move doesn't come as a surprise. The 21-year-old rookie had only appeared in two games with the big club before suffering his season-ending injury, but his high-end potential was on full display during his time in the minors, as he was able to rack up seven goals and 32 points in just 40 AHL appearances. Assuming his rehab goes well, the 2015 third-round pick will have an excellent chance of securing an Opening Night roster spot during next year's training camp.

Capobianco will miss the remainder of the 2018-19 season due to a lower-body injury suffered Thursday against the Blue Jackets.

Capobianco was in the midst of just his second NHL game this season when he required assistance leaving the ice. The blueliner posted a promising 32 points -- seven goals and 25 assists -- and a plus-10 rating over 40 games with AHL Tuscon. Assuming he's healthy for training camp next season, Capobianco could challenge for an Opening Night roster spot.

Capobianco had to be helped off the ice after suffering an apparent lower-body injury during Thursday's game against the Blue Jackets, Dave Vest of the Coyotes' official site reports.

Capobianco sustained his injury when he was hit into the boards by Columbus' Nick Foligno midway through the third period of Thursday's contest. The rookie blueliner wasn't able to put any weight on his right leg as he was helped off the ice, so he could be facing a lengthy absence. More details regarding Capobianco's condition should surface ahead of Saturday's matchup with Dallas.

Capobianco has been fantastic in the minors this season, racking up seven goals and 32 points in 40 appearances. The 21-year-old blueliner could make his season debut as soon as Saturday against San Jose.

Capobianco is the Coyotes rookie who has the best chance to claim a roster spot with the parent club this season, Richard Morin of the Arizona Republic reports.

The 21-year-old defenseman produced 30 points (two goals, 28 assists) over 49 games for AHL Tucson last season, and that seems to have opened some eyes among Coyotes scouts. Selected in the third round (No. 63 overall) of the 2015 draft, Capobianco is known as a skilled passer from the blue line. The 'Yotes have been extremely busy molding young prospects over the years, but this team has depth up front and on the back line, so if Capobianco hits the big stage, it might not be until later in the season.

Capobianco was sent back to AHL Tuscon on Wednesday.

Capobianco didn't draw into any games during his time with the big club this go-around, having played just one career NHL game thus far. Still only 20 years old, the 2015 third-round selection has racked up a massive 22 points (two goals, 20 assists) in the AHL this season, potentially putting him in position to run for a full-time spot with the big club in training camp for 2018-19.

Jason Demers is day-to-day with an upper-body injury, so Capobianco will likely round out the Coyotes' depth at defense against the Stars on Thursday. The 20-year-old blueliner has been productive in the minors this season, racking up two goals and 22 points in 35 contests.
