Speculation: Jakob Chychrun being held out of the Coyotes lineup until a trade is completed

[hbk]

Why are they trading Chychrun, anyway? Isn't he young and one of their few good pieces?

He asked for a trade. Just yesterday.

 

[Oilslick941611]

This is BS

how is this allowed? he should be playing. Yotes fans are getting ripped off. There's no way the PA can be okay with these games by the coyotes.

 

[Boonk]

He doesn’t want to be there and requested a trade. At least he’s not making a big stink about it like some others and is actually playing some hockey worth a damn for his team.

Callously looks over at Dubois

 

[Schemp]

Amazes me that forum 40 fans are fine with Chychrun being held out but other hockey fans aren't? I question their own integrity, calling for the league to interfere with the internal decisions of a franchise.

 

[My3Sons]

So is he going to sit until his contract is up and he leaves in free agency?

 

[Primary Assist]

The smart move would be to have Chick slash a rival team's star player in the head, get suspended, and then have to sit anyway

 

[RainyCityHockey]

Not Boston? Or a darkhorse like Winnipeg?

Boston could be.
Though, that 2023 first is basically a glorified 2nd round pick and I'm not sure the Bruins have much talent(prospects) left to do something like this.
Winnipeg doesn't really need another defenseman, especially at that price, IMO.

Rangers and Leafs are probably out, as they already gave up their 1st and lost cap space

Rangers had two first round picks this year.

Dubois has 55gp 23g 31a 54p +9

3 years later, Chychrun still being held out of lthe ineup pending a trade....

 

[LeftKinger]

Wyshinski says AZ rejected Vilardi and a first last summer.

Villardi last summer is a different story. Spence, Grans and a 1st is about the most I’d be willing to give.

Hasn't Dubois been one of the Jets best players this year?

Yes, I was more referencing his last bit of time with Columbus.

Wow, you told me something I absolutely didn’t know! Thank you for the update

So your number is magically whatever the last non-coyotes team did? Cool. I guess this doesn’t apply to Gavrikov, either? How about the Rangers who held McDonagh from returning from an injury for an untold amount of time? They were just less honest. Maybe that’s the problem?


And this is 50% of the outrage from the booger eaters in this thread.

Would also apply to Columbus and any other team that does this.

McDonagh was dealt February 26th and his first game with Tampa was March 10th. He missed 5 gamed with Tampa, so not entirely sure the Rangers dragged out an injury.

 

[Boonk]

So realistically who even are the prime trading partners for Chychrun anymore?

Oilers would be a perfect fit.
Their cup window is now

I’m sure AZ would love to add that 1st, Lysell and Lohrei

Boston and LA.

Darkhorses are CBJ and WPG. Shoot, maybe even STL.

 

[RainyCityHockey]

That could be it.

Still have a feeling it's either L.A. or it won't happen before the draft.
Boston, to me, just seems like a team that might rather go for a Gavrikov or even Soucy.

His last little bit of time in Columbus he was bullied by Tortorella. He's been playing very well since his arrival in Winnipeg and now their best player. He's been a good team mate his whole career. He doesn't want to be in Winnipeg long term, it's his right.

I think oilers are the best fit and need tbh.

 

[Arthur Fonzarelli]

There’s no way the NHL lets the bastard child coyotes scratch this guy for more than a week right?

Pretty standard procedure scratching a player on the trade block near the deadline when in tank mode.

Particularly true when the player in question has never played a full NHL season and is injured 18%-46% of every season since drafted.

Coyotes fans should be applauding the scratch. The last thing needed is a season ended injury, regardless of how dominant he's been in recent games.

Villardi last summer is a different story. Spence, Grans and a 1st is about the most I’d be willing to give.

Swap Spence with Durzi and add Grundstrom..

 

[KrakenSabresMike]

Sabres could make this work very easily - 1st ( top 10 protected ) and Rosen plus or minus Johnson. You’re not going to get a better first round pick than the one the Sabres can offer… Either they’ll be one of the last teams in the playoffs or just outside, Boston, or any of the containers are not getting you that. It’s prob a 10-15 spot 1st rounder difference

Kraken could make that trade, too, trading Soucy to someone and then their 1st and a non Shane Wright prospect. They could prob get at least another 2 for Soucy and then trade whatever they need to Az

Sabres and Kraken both have lots of prospects, and lots of second round picks too

Winnipeg absolutely needs another defenseman… just not a lefty. Jets are in serious need of an upgrade at top 4, preferably top pairing, RHD

 

[Mosby]

Top teams better not scratch guys prior to the playoffs. Forget preserving legs for the playoffs. This is about the integrity of the game. The soul of hockey.

Well, that still means that Chychrun probably wouldn't be the right fit.
