Winger Steve Downie cleared waivers Monday and was assigned to the Coyotes’ American Hockey League affiliate.
“Early on he played all right then he got injured, missed some time there,” coach Dave Tippett said. “So it’s kind of been up and down a little bit. He hasn’t played much lately. The other night he jumped in. He needs to get up to speed a little bit. Just felt like we need to get him playing a little more, so that’s the way it went.
