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

[North Cole]

Kind of excited to start the 2023-24 season with him sitting out while a trade is being finalized.

 

[bearcountry17]

Why would the ‘Yotes ask for a 26 year old 1 year away from UFA? Makes zero sense.

It's a BS rumor from Murphy but I would imagine cap strapped contenders would pay a big price for Debrusk @ 2 million this year and next. 36 goals in his last 82 games.

According to reports Arizona asked from Buffalo Savioe, Samuelsson and 2023 1st

Arizona can go pound sand,

I’m going to guess that’s also some nonsense source like HockeyBuzz

Do the Jets have interest here? If so, at what cost do you think?

Chychrun 50% retained for Heinola, Lambert and a 1st.

 

[KingTech]

I do find it bizarre what happened. It sounded like there was a trade in place Chychrun for Clarke++ and Chychrun was scratched and then LA denied the trade even existed.

Someone is trying to play to the crowd.

bs our gm Blake went talked to Clarke directly to tell him hes going no where with in hours of this bs rumour coming out

At 50% off I would probably do that and worry about who else to trade later.

UPDATE:


Jacob Chychrun is still a Coyote!



Kypreos not Morgan, so it isn't coming AZ, but from Toronto.

With a lottery win, I can see the Coyotes and Chychrun agreeing not to pursue a trade.

My dream scenario right here.

 

[CBJx614]

With the report out that the CBJ/Boston deal is pending another trade, makes me think that one of them is connected to the AZ deal?

Gavrikov to Boston

Assets from that trade + CBJs own assets to AZ for CBJ to get Chychrun?


Timing is terrible tank/draft wise but, Jackets have been pursuing him for a long time..

I’d be pumped. Boston’s 1st and Mateychuk would have me doing cartwheels

No f&^%@ Way take a hike Billy. Bruins fan.!

Hell hath frozen over.

Given what was posted above about the ask from Buffalo, we Sabres fans would like to join Bruins fans in a big middle finger to Billy.

What an embarrassment to the league. A tragedy. Who’s crying?

 

[Mr Positive]

My dream scenario right here.

Except that they can't just purposely tank by scratching him all season. So, they have to play him and that reduces the odds of getting Bedard

 

[John Pedro]

at the end of the day, it doesn't matter much if they have the top odds or the 5th

it's all about luck so may as well try and build something to look forward for next season, it's not like they gonna win that many games even with him in the lineup

 

[Golden_Jet]

What an embarrassment to the league. A tragedy. Who’s crying?

And he’s now been traded before he missed todays game, ya tragedy lol.
It wasn’t at all like the Chychurn fallacy.

That is true, and they could still tank by trading off other players

Bruh, come on. Reduces those odds by like, what, 5 percent? We're either going to win him or we're not. But GMBA isn't putting all his eggs in the Bedard basket. He's talked about stacking good player on good player. Above anything, he wants to build a team that runs four lines deep and then some. Bedard would be great to have. But if the Yotes don't get him, I doubt GMBA loses sleep.

The NHLPA has to step in here, they can't keep him out of the lineup for over 2wks

Why not? What if this is a byproduct of Chychrun and his camp, rather than Bill and the Coyotes?

Lol no chance, Chychurn is asking to sit.

 

[GhostofYotesFan47]

Lol no chance, Chychurn is asking to sit.

Can you prove that? You seem pretty certain so you must have some verifiable into on the situation? Please enlighten us.

 

[Kingspiracy]

Lol no chance, Chychurn is asking to sit.

Dunno man, if he wants out he may want to sit to avoid injury. He knows his own injury history better than anyone.

 

[TwzKing]

it really is baffling why you guys think the union would be upset. The player is getting paid and they plan to trade him. That's really all that matters. Any player can be scratched for any reason as long as the bills are getting paid who give a f***.

Lol, how many players do you know that have asked not to be played, and 2 weeks later still sitting. Funny idea though.

bs our gm Blake went talked to Clarke directly to tell him hes going no where with in hours of this bs rumour coming out

fwiw, in 18 games in the OHL, Clarke has 11G, 19A for 30 pts on a team whose best players are 4th & 5th round picks. In Chychrun’s final year in the OHL, 62 games, 11G, 38A for 49 pts on a team with Zacha, Konecny & Kyrou. So in less than a third of the games, Clarke has stepped in and scored as many goals and has has half the assists while playing on a much less talented team.

You can say that Clarke needs to be able to show in the NHL, but in his brief stint with the Kings, he certainly showed flashes and was a stud in big game situations for Team Canada. And while Chychrun has had one good season in the NHL, he has also only played in about 80% of the games due to injuries - noting that injuries in his draft year were also the reason that he dropped in the draft.

There is little likelihood that Blake would have ever considered trading Clarke (or Byfield) for Chychrun because he expects those two players to be the core of the Kings for next decade.

Please somebody think of the children!

It’s Chicago, Columbus , Anaheim and teams like those that are upset atm.
