Two sources (one directly connected) are telling me that the Arizona Coyotes have begun entertaining the idea of moving Taylor Hall at the deadline after feeling that re-signing him may not be in the cards...From what I am hearing they have talked to three teams about this, but one team that is very interested in the NY Islanders.
This shouldn't be all that surprising given the widely held belief that Hall wants to test free agency, and much like John Tavares previously appears to have a destination in mind (Calgary).
I will be back to add more to this blog this afternoon..
Update: email from a source: The Jets are interested in Sami Vatanen and the Devils (who are still very much trying to extend Sami) are considering the offer..even thinking they could trade him to Winnipeg and bring him back to NJ in July 1. Always a risky play...
