I feel like the Coyotes need another winger who can put some points on the board (preferably goals). Ideally, this would be a LW rather than a RW. So my first preference would be a goal-scoring LW.
I'm looking for a guy who has 15-20g per 82/gp potential. 35-40pts /82gp kind of guy. Maybe he's 28-32 years old. Maybe a pending UFA. I'm not asking for an All-Star.
The Coyotes have been healthy scratching Jason Demers, who is a pending UFA. So this is the chip to be used to balance cap-hits. Depending on the winger's AAV, the Coyotes also have Antti Raanta available to add to the deal to balance out the money. Another pending UFA, Raanta continues to struggle to stay healthy.
As for the actual trade asset? I'd like to use the 2021 Columbus 2nd round pick the Coyotes acquired from Ottawa for Stepan. That player is so terrible, and losing him was absolutely addition by subtraction. So that 2nd round pick feels an awful lot like found money.
Cliff's Notes: Do you have a goal-scoring, left winger you'd like to trade for a 2nd round pick and a cap-dump? Offer him up here!
