Michael Bunting has finally made the Coyotes full-time after being drafted way back in 2014.
He has nine goals (!!) in his first 16 games this year. He's played six AHL seasons in the organization and never made the team out of camp. He's a pending UFA who is still eligible for the Calder... you don't see that too often.
When he was drafted, the Coyotes were coming off a season where Keith Yandle led them in scoring; their forwards included Mikkel Boedker, Shane Doan, Mike Ribeiro, David Moss, Lauri Korpikoski, Jeff Halpern, Paul Bissonnette, Martin Erat, Antoine Vermette, and Kyle Chipchura; Mike Smith was their starting goalie; Michael Stone was in their top-four....
Oh, and they were still called "Phoenix."
