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

[ViD]

He’s going to Columbus.

Book it. LAK 1st is part of the deal

 

[Dead Coyote]

Peterka + Savoie + Jokiharju + 2nd for Chychrun + Bjustad

No takebacks

 

[RABBIT]

Gotta think Colombia re-enters the chat with LA’s first round pick

 

[Nucker101]

Would be such a 3D chess move by Jarmo to grab Chychrun now

Kings out of the bidding, Oilers out. And he just picked up a 1st as ammo,

Dregor said on air Holland had been negotiating with Armstrong all day yesterday and all morning today and got deep but Holland walked away at some point in the afternoon shifted his focus to ekholm and got a deal done with the Preds in a few hours.

What are the yotes doing here? How long can you wait?

Long enough to get LA’s 1st and Ceulemans/Mateychuk?

 

[Hale The Villain]

I’m guessing he goes to Columbus now with the assets from LA.

Jarmo would have to be barking mad to trade for Chychrun now when the Blue Jackets are last in the league and have the best percentage odds to get Bedard.

Importantly, even if they lose the lottery they would be guaranteed a top 3 pick and a future top line C in Carlsson/Fantilli.

Only 2 points separates them from the Sharks at 29th, so it's not like they have that 32nd spot locked up either.

They traded Korpisalo and Gavrikov and Nyquist, etc. things will balance out.

You don't add a top pairing defenseman to your roster for futures when you're tanking, even if other players are going out the door.

If I'm Jarmo I'll try to work out a deal to send Chychrun to CBJ in the summer, but adding him now would be incredibly stupid.

Trade for him, play him 25 mins a night for a week or two and there’s a good change he gets banged up enough to shut him down. Chychrun isn’t exactly an iron man and tanking teams will IR a guy who gets a papercut during the last stretch of the season

They’ve been talking to Arizona about him all year, I don’t think that changes.

If I was the Oilers, I might try something around Bourgault, a 1st and enough salary to fit him in.

It would be really interesting to know how close the Oilers actually got and what the trade looked like.

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

Pens are going to jump back into the party after hearing this.

Chychrun goes out of the fire and into the frying pan.

We have a deal without Mateychuk

That’s a lot of left shot D men. Nurse, Ekholm, Kulak, Broberg plus Chychrun is intense unless Kulak was going the other way.

 

[toddkaz]

Buffalo 1st, 2 2nds and Rosen

Buffalo can make the best offer since their 1st will likely be 14-20

If Columbus is dumb enough to sell the future for Chychrun then they need a new GM. This is a guy who has publicly said that he wants to play for a contender and is only signed for 2 more years. Columbus will not be a contender in the next 2 years so he will walk as a UFA. Would be really stupid for them to do it.

 

[Nemesis Prime]

Price will come down and will end up in Edmitten.

He's also reportedly already rejected a trade there.

How?

 

[Gurglesons]

ARZ is going to get the best value from PIT or WAS at this point..

How?

I dunno. But Portzline said it and after Russo he's the best connected beat guy in the game.

Unless Jarmo feels he's on the hot seat. If Columbus can bounce back next(maybe injuries are Jarmo's excuse) year and improve the following year, perhaps Chychrun sticks around. And if they continue to suck for the next 2 years, Chychrun leaves as a UFA and Jarmo might be following right behind him so he might not care about future assets and the possibility Chychrun leaving. Then again maybe John Davidson vetos the trade but maybe he's on the hot seat as well.

I think he said he rejected the trade at the draft. But reconsidered after they signed Gaudreau but changed his mind after realizing they still sucked with Gaudreau lol
