Coyotes sign veteran forward to PTO

Per Capfriendly, the Arizona Coyotes have signed forward Alex Chiasson to a professional tryout offer (PTO) for training camp later this month.

Chiasson spent the 2021-22 season with the Vancouver Canucks, where he recorded 13 goals and 22 points in 67 outings. The 31-year-old winger is no stranger to PTOs, having not only received one to the Canucks camp last year but as well the Edmonton Oilers prior to the 2018-19 season. He made the best of both, earning himself a deal like he will try to with the Coyotes.

While he lacks the overall speed and skill to be a difference maker for a team, Chiasson is great in tight situations and has the ability to play on the man advantage. Whether or not the Coyotes see use in him given their very much rebuilding state remains to be seen, but there is no denying that the 631-game veteran can still contribute to an NHL roster.
