Yandle wasn't moved to make room for Gormley imo. In fact they play completely different styles and the Coyotes acquired John Moore from the Rangers hoping to replace Yandle's puck moving ability. The guys Gormley needed to beat out in the last couple of years are guys like Michalek, Summers, and Schlemko. He wasn't able to do that and maybe next year is different but I am not too excited about his progress thus far. That said, I am not sure that Granlund is really the type of asset the Coyotes are looking to add either. Value wise though I don't see Gormley being too much more than Granlund.
