Samuelsson was reassigned to AHL Springfield on Tuesday.

Analysis:

Samuelsson had been called up to provide depth for the Coyotes defense. Defenseman Nicklas Grossman recovered from a lower-body injury more quickly than expected however, and thus necessitated Samuelsson going back to Springfield to open up a roster spot. The 24-year-old Swede has skated in three contests this season for Arizona.
