Several of the Ducks’ prospects played with Tulsa last season on a loan basis, including goaltender Olle Eriksson Ek, center Brent Gates and defenseman Hunter Drew, in order to give ice time that was unavailable to them because of a fully stocked roster in San Diego. The Ducks haven’t had an ECHL affiliate since 2017-18, when they had an agreement with the Utah Grizzlies. Tulsa was fourth in the seven- team Mountain Division this past season with a 29-26-7-1 record when play was halted because of the coronavirus outbreak. Orange County Register: LOADED: 07.02.2020 1176132 Arizona Coyotes Coyotes F Phil Kessel: 2019-20 was a tough year for injuries BY MATT LAYMAN JUNE 30, 2020 AT 4:30 PM The Arizona Coyotes’ long pause in the season before the planned return to play has this silver lining: Everyone could, in theory, get healthy. That included Phil Kessel, who dealt with a groin injury early on in the season. The extent to which that affected his play can’t be certain to anyone, but it is clear that 2019-20 wasn’t Kessel’s best year.
