Rumor: Jakob Chychrun wants to be traded to a playoff team

[Canucks LB]

He wants to go to a team that'll make the playoffs.

The Canucks are pretty damn close

 

[sennysensen]

Here is the exact quote: "Jakob Chychrun admits he took the Coyotes up on an offer of trying to be traded so he could play for a team that could compete for a playoff spot, rather than endure the rebuild. That obviously did not happen but that is still his wish."


Chychrun wants to be traded to a team that could compete for a playoff spot. That's probably about 25 NHL teams.

 

[ICanMotteBelieveIt]

Ryan Lindgren + 1st + prospect?

 

[biturbo19]

Have to think the main reason he's not already a Canuck at this point, is that Vancouver just doesn't have anything of interest to Yotes management, that they can realistically offer. If he's healthy, he'd certainly fill a need. Cost controlled for at least a little while longer. Obviously the asking price is just...beyond the realm of what Vancouver has available.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

He's not even medically cleared to shoot a puck at the moment. There are probably several reasons why he hasn't been traded yet.

 

[TBF1972]

Take out Hayton. Change the 2nd to a 1st.

i wonder if arziona would do knies for hayton alone.

 

[Esq]

Don't we all, Jakob. Don't we all.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Hmmmmm I'd rather just stay put living in Scottsdale making millions than chase my dream of winning a Cup lol

 

[Heldig]

This is a little alarming, no? Not sure how big of a package I’d give up in a trade.

I figure any team trading for Chychrun is going to put a condition based on games played. Something like if he plays more than X the team adds a 2nd rounder.

 

[Neutrinos]

***BREAKING NEWS***

Chychrun has been traded to the Yankees

 

[AslanRH]

He said playoff team

I think they are on an excellent path. Add another very good defenseman and some luck and I think they are a bubble team if the Atlantic can place 5 teams into the playoffs like the Central has previously.

Goaltending scares me a bit, but that goes for half the league lately

Except the metro still has 5 teams that might make the playoffs and the Atlantic might only have 3. Dont see OTT better than the isles, rangers, pens, caps or carolina. Thats also assuming Toronto, Florida and Tampa are the top 3. Not even including Boston which could be better than last year too. There should be more parity and they should be better I am just not sure its good enough to be in a playoff spot but injuries do happen so that could change things. Rangers lose Shesty or Toronto losing matthews could change things I guess.

Its the week(s) before training camp - what does traded to a playoff team mean?

 

[Vancouver_2010]

Come to Vancouver, earn the playoffs.

Not for the price coyotes fans are expecting though, not worth getting it when we are no where close contending. The best we should be offering is hoglander and a first.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Poor Yotes. Just can't have nice things.

That's their fault.

Its the week(s) before training camp - what does traded to a playoff team mean?

You know what it means we can look at the rosters and predict most playoff teams

The 1st is to move Barrie, so it’s Holloway for Chychrun? Wooof for Arizona

Don’t be ridiculous

He’s heading into his 7th season. Last season was the first in which he wasn’t exceedingly impressive. At least to those of us who actually watch him pay and actually understand the context of his environment.

Chychrun is a good case study in ignorant fans who love to bluff but have no idea what they’re talking about. There is no shortage of online Chychrun experts who’ve never seen him play and know less than nothing about the Coyotes.


Replace Holloway with Bourgault and I don’t think it’s that far off.

That was what I had in mind too. Holloway is almost a non starter at this point, but Bourgault might be doable.

 

[hidek91]

Add to the OP:

Turned off after the 20 seconds combo of "um", "you know" and "I think".

Bourgault, ‘23 1st and Foegele would be pretty close for me.

I take it this is the first interview with an NHL player you’ve ever attempted to watch? Or do you turn all of them off after 20 seconds?

 

[57special]

MN could do it, depending on what ARI wants in return, but another LHD seems redundant. I am guessing that ARI is asking for too much, or he would've been traded already.

If ARI is not prepared to take back salary, then that eliminates a lot of teams right off the bat. At least forces a wait till the TDL, when teams can take on cap more easily.

Barrie is a cap dump, you’ll need a sweetener to drop him, no different than Vancouver will need to add for Arizona to take a cap dump

 

[Team Cozens]

Yeah, so the Senators

If the Sens land Chychrun, they are a better team than the Leafs.

 

[blackjackmulligan]

He ends up on the Sabre's is my prediction

 

[Deadly Dogma]

Ok here goes
to Chi Sandin+Knies+2023 1st for Kane at 50%
To Ari 2024 1st+2024 2nd+Niemela+Hirvonen+Muzzin+Kerfoot for Chychrun@50%
to Tor Kane@25%+Chychrun

Yup.

Why is this thread a thing?

He has had two more surgeries, which makes it five total surgeries in his career, so far.
