It didn't take long for the Arizona Coyotes' latest waiver wire move to pay dividends.
Mark Arcobello scored against the San Jose Sharks on Friday in his first shift with Arizona after the Coyotes claimed him off waivers from the Pittsburgh Penguins. The journeyman forward collected a turnover at San Jose's blue line and beat Antti Niemi with a rising wrist shot to the blocker side.

Arizona is Arcobello's fourth stop this season. He began the campaign with the Edmonton Oilers before being traded to the Nashville Predators for Derek Roy. He scored in his Predators debut but played only four games in Nashville before the Penguins claimed him off waivers to fill their injury-depleted lineup.
Arcobello is one of only three players to play for an NHL-record four different teams in a single season, joining Dennis O'Brien and Dave McLlwain. Only Arcobello and O'Brien recorded points with all four of their teams.
