In the last few hours, the Arizona Coyotes organization has issued a unique statement.
It's practically unheard of.
They outright announced that the team's star defenseman, Jakob Chychrun, has been scratched tonight because a trade is more than ever imminent.
Chychrun will obviously be traded in the next few hours and it will be a monster trade.
In 36 games this season, the 24 year old guard scored 28 points.
Chychrun is a first round pick, 16th overall, in the 2016 draft, and in exchange for his services, the Coyotes are asking for the equivalent of three (3) first round picks.
