TUCSON, ARIZONA – Arizona Coyotes President of Hockey Operations and General Manager John Chayka announced today that the Coyotes have assigned the following three players to the Tucson Roadrunners, the club’s American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate.
FORWARD:
Lane Pederson
The 2018-19 team’s leading point-getter, Pederson returns to Tucson after producing 23 goals, 24 assists and 47 points last season.

Entering his second professional season, Gross will look to continue his growth in Tucson.
