The Arizona Coyotes recalled forward Michael Bunting from the Tucson Roadrunners on Tuesday.

Bunting was last recalled from Tucson on Dec. 7, and Arizona sent him back to the AHL club 10 days later.

With Arizona, he has appeared in four games and scored a goal.

Bunting has tallied 6-12-18 and 28 penalty minutes in 22 games with the Roadrunners this year as well.

Bunting was a fourth-round pick by the Coyotes in 2014.
