Arizona Coyotes’ NHL trade deadline moves highlight the organization's financial constraints

Jakob Chychrun, Shayne Gostisbehere, Nick Bjugstad, Troy Stecher, Nick Ritchie, Cam Dineen and Jon Gillies are on their way out, and Michael Kesselring, Brett Ritchie, Connor Mackey, Jakub Voráček’s contract and a plethora of picks are on their way in for the Arizona Coyotes at the conclusion of the NHL trade deadline. The moves (and lack of moves) highlight the Yotes’ money constraints. How does GM Bill Armstrong go forward? What will coach André Tourigny’s lineup look like for the rest of the season?

Petey, Craig and Leah evaluate the Coyotes’ trade deadline moves, the impact on the lineup and the state of the team moving forward on the NHL trade deadline edition of the PHNX Coyotes Podcast!
