Arizona Coyotes Scratch Forward Before Upcoming Game For Trade Related Reasons
The Arizona Coyotes are making headlines again, this time for benching forward Jason Zucker as trade rumors heat up.
NEWS: #Yotes holding Jason Zucker out of lineup tonight for trade-related reasons, per @reporterchris
At 32, Zucker has tallied nine goals and 25 points over 51 games this season. Known for his scoring ability, including a 30-goal season, he's seen as a valuable asset for teams looking to bolster their lineup for a playoff run.
This move echoes the recent situation with Wennberg, where a player was scratched amidst trade speculation. As the deadline nears, all eyes are on Zucker and potential moves by the Coyotes.
