What are the coyotes looking for in a return here?
Geez, the only way to know that would be to read the first sentence of the OP. So I guess it'll be one of those great mysteries of life.
What are the coyotes looking for in a return here?
What? Not throwing in a 3rd?Keller ++ for Matthews?
Matthews can't seem to stay healthy though so there is a gamble for the Yotes.
It's funny that for a hard cap league the NHL fanbase is miles behind the MLB in using production per $ as a metric. Other than as a rental you theoretically should never give up an asset when you can buy the same production for the same or less on the open market
Here's a quick list of the same production for the same or less money this off season why give up assets or be tied into 6-7 years term?
Nuge
Krejci
Stasny
Dubinsky
Granlund
Wennberg
I get the premise and logic but Arizona, as a team, can't be doing this is their hope is to ice a team that fans will follow.
The days of the constant "trade good players for draft picks" cycle need to be done.
Awful take, not a single one of those players is under 25, Keller is 22. Furthermore, Dubinsky's career is literally over, he won't play again. Wennberg and Granlund are the only other players you listed that have been on a team so defensively oriented as Arizona. Keller's PPG might be considered low for his contract when compared across the league but he has been top 2 in team production every single season of his career. NBA is an extremely different sport that even defensively oriented teams still have 100 points against on average, with hockey you can be looking at 1-3 goals against on average for some teams and 5-8 GA for others. The only player on your list you would even consider over Keller is Nuge.It's funny that for a hard cap league the NHL fanbase is miles behind the MLB in using production per $ as a metric.

I think the idea would be that Dvorak, Garland, and Chychrun are the real core of the team and that Keller is expendable.
Henrique + Terry + 2nd for Keller + Fischer + 3rd? Not sure I'd do this, just trying to get a feel for what type of value they're looking for. Could be way off.
I don’t think Az would even take that for Keller alone. They want a first because they lost theirs. I wonder if the ducks value him enough to send their 1st if it’s not too high, but even then they may do it given the uncertainty in this years draftHenrique + Terry + 2nd for Keller + Fischer + 3rd? Not sure I'd do this, just trying to get a feel for what type of value they're looking for. Could be way off.
I don't think the Coyotes would be looking to bring back any players that are more overpaid than Keller (relatively) and signed to longer term deals (beyond a season or two), honestly. For that reason, I think David Backes would be a really good fit in a deal like this, but I don't think Adam Henrique would make as much sense. Perhaps Jakob Sillfverberg is a good middle-ground, between these two options?In a vacuum I'd like to add him to Anaheim, but the Coyotes would have to take Henrique back (along with whatever we'd need to add to make up the value). Or I guess maybe Silfverberg with a lesser add than Henrique would require, as he's a better player with a better contract. Not sure if the Coyotes would have any interest in taking back either player, or what they'd want the plus to be, but I'd be willing to explore it.
If you took out Keller, I would still decline that deal. I would not trade Fischer and a 3rd to get your 2nd and Terry, if it meant I had to take Henrique. Even if you took our our 3rd, I probably would not trade Fischer for Terry and a 2nd if it meant I had to take on Henrique.Henrique + Terry + 2nd for Keller + Fischer + 3rd?

Anaheim has certainly got a lot of intriguing assets. I worry that many of them are either too good to give up, though. Can we make a deal with the leftovers?

Rangers should go after Keller if they can't get Jack Eichel.
