Coyotes claim Sekac off waivers from Blackhawks

Jiri Sekac is headed to his fourth team in just over a year.

The Arizona Coyotes claimed Sekac off waivers Saturday from the Chicago Blackhawks.

Sekac only played in six games for Chicago after being acquired from the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for Ryan Garbutt earlier in the season.

The 23-year-old forward has struggled in 2015-16, recording just one goal and three assists in 28 games. He has 27 points in 97 games over his two seasons in the NHL.

He'll have his first opportunity to join the Coyotes roster on Monday against the Pittsburgh Penguins.
