BREAKING: Arizona Coyotes close to TRADING Jakob Chychrun

A young top pair defenceman capable of 50+ points easily, who is signed to one of the most team friendly deals in the National Hockey League. His skill set speaks for itself, but it's believed many teams have been worried about his health. Chychrun has never played in a full 82 game season, but despite this he has put up great numbers on an offensively challenged Coyotes.

Coyotes D Jakob Chychrun is a healthy scratch tonight versus the St. Louis Blues due to trade related reasons. F Liam O'Brien is day to day with an upper body injury. Defensemen Victor Soderstrom & Dysin Mayo have been recalled from the Tucson Roadrunners (AHL).
