Hockey Canada Announces 2022 IIHF World Championship Roster

May 9, 2022 at 12:11 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee 5 Comments

The roster is set, with just a few days to go before things kick off for Hockey Canada at the 2022 IIHF World Championship. The defending gold medalists will be icing a rather youthful roster this season, highlighted by some of the league’s up-and-coming stars, along with some established top-end youngsters.

The full roster will be:

G Chris Driedger
G Logan Thompson
G Matt Tomkins

D Thomas Chabot
D Ryan Graves
D Nick Holden
D Dysin Mayo
D Travis Sanheim
D Damon Severson
D Zach Whitecloud

F Josh Anderson
F Mathew Barzal
F Drake Batherson
F Max Comtois
F Dylan Cozens
F Pierre-Luc Dubois
F Morgan Geekie
F Noah Gregor
F Kent Johnson
F Adam Lowry
F Dawson Mercer
F Eric O’Dell
F Nicolas Roy
F Cole Sillinger

For a player like Mayo, this selection truly solidifies the hard work he has put in over years of grinding in the minor leagues. The fifth-round pick spent parts of seven seasons in the AHL before arriving this year with the Arizona Coyotes and becoming one of the team’s most reliable options. Now 25, he’ll be suiting up for his country for the first time at a major international tournament.

Meanwhile, someone like Cozens is taking the next step in representing his country, after last captaining Team Canada at the 2021 World Juniors (where he scored an incredible 16 points in seven games). The Buffalo Sabres forward had 38 points in his first full-length NHL season and has huge upside as a potential franchise cornerstone. The same could be said for players like Johnson and Sillinger, two names that will likely drive the offense for years to come in Columbus.

Perhaps the most interesting name in the group is Dubois, given the Winnipeg Jets center doesn’t have a contract for next season. Pending restricted free agents, especially ones as important as Dubois, usually skip the tournament because of insurance issues and the risk of injury. Instead, he’ll head overseas to play in a tournament he’s already attended twice previously, despite still just being 23 years old.

Arizona Coyotes Extend Dysin Mayo

February 25, 2022 at 4:44 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

The Arizona Coyotes have signed Dysin Mayo to a three-year contract extension, that will keep him signed through the 2024-25 season. Mayo was scheduled to become an arbitration-eligible restricted free agent this summer. Instead, he’ll sign a multi-year extension just halfway through his rookie year. PuckPedia reports that the deal will carry a cap hit of $950K, paying Mayo $850K in 2022-23, and $1MM in each of the other two years. Bill Armstrong, general manager of the Coyotes, had this to say:

We are very pleased to sign Dysin to a new three-year contract. Dysin has worked extremely hard on and off the ice and has established himself as a reliable NHL defenseman. We look forward to having him on our blue line for years to come.

Mayo, 25, is a brilliant example of perseverance. After being selected 133rd overall in 2014, he played two more years at the WHL level then entered the minor leagues as something of an afterthought. In his first season with the Coyotes organization he spent half the year with the ECHL’s Rapid City Rush, but quickly showed he could dominate at that level. That didn’t mean the NHL was calling though, as it would be four more full seasons in the AHL with the Tucson Roadrunners before finally making it to the Coyotes roster this year.

In 42 games with Arizona, he’s proven he belongs. Mayo is averaging almost 21 minutes a night for the rebuilding club, more than anyone but Jakob Chychrun and Shayne Gostisbehere. He is the anchor of the team’s penalty-killing unit, seeing more than three minutes a night shorthanded, and leads all Coyotes in blocked shots with 83. While he may not be suited for that kind of deployment on a contending team, Mayo has held his own at the NHL level and earned this extension. He’ll no longer need to worry about riding the bus in the AHL and should be a regular in the Coyotes lineup for the foreseeable future.

Arizona Coyotes Place Dysin Mayo In COVID Protocol

January 22, 2022 at 3:29 pm CDT | by Josh Erickson Leave a Comment

Arizona Coyotes defenseman Dysin Mayo entered the NHL’s COVID-19 protocol today, the team announced.

Mayo becomes the third Coyote in COVID protocol. He joins forwards Ryan Dzingel and Antoine Roussel.

If Mayo is only subject to a five-day quarantine, he would only miss Arizona’s next two games. He could be eligible to return on January 28th, a home game against the Boston Bruins.

An unexpected regular in the Coyotes lineup this season, Mayo has five points in 34 games. He’s impressed defensively, however, earning the right to 20:49 of ice time per game and only a -2 rating on a porous Coyotes team.

The 25-year-old was the team’s 133rd overall selection back in 2014.

Kyle Capobianco, Marian Studenic Clear Waivers

November 8, 2021 at 1:00 pm CDT | by Josh Erickson 5 Comments

Nov 8: Both players have cleared waivers and can now be assigned to the minor leagues.

Nov 7: Two names are appearing on NHL waivers Sunday, per Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman. The Arizona Coyotes placed defenseman Kyle Capobianco there, while the New Jersey Devils waived forward Marian Studenic.

Capobianco, a 24-year-old who was expected to possibly steal a lineup spot this season, hasn’t played this season as a knee injury has sidelined him. Capobianco was activated from injured reserve today in order to permit the Coyotes to waive him. It appears as though recent call-ups Dysin Mayo and Cam Dineen have now surpassed Capobianco on the team’s depth chart.

The Devils have utilized Studenic in five games this season, but the 23-year-old Slovakian has yet to register a point. He was technically the team’s only extra healthy forward, but they’ve also played Mason Geertsen at forward instead of his usual defense at some points this season. Studenic’s averaged just 11:33 of ice time in those five games.

Both Capobianco and Studenic were younger players that appeared to have the inside track on roster spots heading into the season. It’s entirely possible that a team could choose to take a chance on either one of Capobianco or Studenic.

Coyotes Re-Sign Dysin Mayo And Blake Speers

August 2, 2021 at 4:19 pm CDT | by Brian La Rose 1 Comment

The Coyotes have taken care of two more of their restricted free agents, announcing the re-signing of defenseman Dysin Mayo to a one-year, two-way contract and forward Blake Speers to a one-year, two-way deal.  Financial terms of the deals were not disclosed.  The team also confirmed the previously reported re-signing of Cam Dineen.

The 24-year-old was a fifth-round pick of the Coyotes back in 2014 (133rd overall) but has spent the entirety of his professional career at the minor league level.  Last season, Mayo played in 35 games with AHL Tucson, collecting a goal and three assists along with 22 PIMS.  While those numbers don’t particularly stand out, he has done enough over his 256 career AHL contests to warrant being qualified last month.

Mayo is waiver-eligible but has cleared in training camp in each of the last two years so there’s a good chance he will pass through unclaimed once again in the fall.  He will serve as depth with the Roadrunners once again and unless he manages to become a regular with the Coyotes in short order, he will be eligible for Group Six unrestricted free agency next summer.

As for Speers, he was acquired from New Jersey as part of the Taylor Hall trade but hasn’t seen any NHL action since his three-game stint in the 2016-17 campaign.  Injuries limited the 24-year-old to just four games with the Roadrunners last season.  He’s also waiver-eligible but a safe bet to clear and will be recallable injury depth for Arizona next season.  Like Mayo, Speers can also become a Group Six UFA next summer.

Coyotes Sign Dysin Mayo To One-Year, Two-Way Contract

June 30, 2020 at 2:00 pm CDT | by TC Zencka 4 Comments

The Arizona Coyotes signed Dysin Mayo to a one-year, two-way contract, the team announced today. The terms of the deal were not disclosed. Mayo could prove to be an important depth signing for the Coyotes in future seasons.

Mayo, 23, was a fifth-round pick in 2014. The Canadian-born defenseman spent the past three full seasons with the Tucson Roadrunners of the AHL. In 58 games this past season, Mayo was plus-24 while putting up 12 points (4 goals). That’s a promising showing from the blueliner, and the top plus/minus numbers on the Roadrunners this season.

Arizona is well-equipped on the defensive end, allowing 2.47 goals per game, the fourth-best mark in the league. That said, they have a number of blueliners facing unrestricted free agency following the 2020-2021 season. Niklas Hjalmarsson, Alex Goligoski, Aaron Ness, Jason Demers and Jordan Oesterle could all leave as free agents after next season. Keeping Mayo in the fold gives Arizona valuable insurance and cost efficiency as they look to build out their defensive unit in an uncertain environment. The salary cap isn’t likely to go up for at least two seasons, though the final numbers won’t be finalized until the NHL and NHLPA officially come to a return-to-play agreement.
