Arizona Coyotes Rumors: 6 Teams Linked to Jakob Chychrun


While on TSN Insider Trading, Darren Dreger reported that the Ottawa Senators, Toronto Maple Leafs, Edmonton Oilers, Los Angeles Kings, St. Louis Blues, and Columbus Blue Jackets are all expressing interest in Arizona Coyotes defenseman Jakob Chychrun.
You may notice that most of the names on this list are dealing with limited cap space (or none at all), but according to Dreger, the Coyotes are willing to "take on a contract or contracts" to help a move come to fruition. This, naturally, could result in Arizona landing more assets for helping a team out.

All of these teams could use some help on the left side, so it isn't surprising to see them making a push for Chychrun. The 24-year-old is a true top-pairing defenseman at his best and would make an immediate impact if acquired. In 47 games this past season, he had seven goals to go along with 21 points.
