The Coyotes approached Jakob Chychrun multiple times about a potential trade
Alan Robinson of NHL,com: Arizona Coyotes defenseman Jakob Chychrun said the team has approached him several times about a potential trade.
“The team approached me a couple of times, one before the , one early in the season and we just had discussions about where I was mentally and where the team was at,” Chychrun said Wednesday, with the Coyotes having physicals and team meetings. “Knowing the type of competitor and person that I am, they indicated if this rebuild was going to be hard or difficult on me that, if I wanted to be in a different situation, they were going to be willing to and make that happen.
” decided to take them up on that offer and try to move on to a better situation my desire to to win in this league. Careers are so short, the time flies by, and I’m in my seventh year in the NHL. It’s just crazy.”
