2 Arizona Coyotes Most Likely to be Traded

The Arizona Coyotes may never win a game this season and their management team is totally ok with it. The team is hopeful of landing the #1 pick at the 2022 draft and a chance to select elite prospect Shane Wright. While the house cleaning has been ongoing for several months, expect a couple more deals from the Coyotes and potentially soon.

2 Coyotes Next to Get Traded

Phil Kessel: The easy choice. Kessel is done in 'Zona and it's only a matter of time before the sniper gets shipped out of the dessert. Kessel has been linked to the Vegas Golden Knights and is likely a fall back option should they miss out on landing Jack Eichel. Playoff bound teams are going to be all over acquiring the American Olympian and two-time Stanley Cup champ. Teams to watch out for are the Pittsburgh Penguins, Edmonton Oilers, Washington Capitals, St Louis Blues and Tampa Bay Lightning. Kessel is only due $1 million in actual cash this season, which is music to the ears of his owners.

Antoine Roussel: The checking winger is someone who can bring some sandpaper to a playoff team and it's likely some teams take a look at the pending free agent. He's appeared in six games and has yet to register a point, as he's getting under 10 minutes of ice-time a night. With 560 games under his belt of being a pest, expect to see this grinder moved before the deadline.
