Nick Schmaltz has been a point-per-game since arriving in AZ.

Huh? Edmonton does not have 2 generational talents.

Orr, Lafleur, Gretzky, Mario, Lindros, Crosby and McDavid are the ONLY players considered generational coming into the NHL. A few people also called Auston Matthews "Generational" but overall he don't make the list as he wasn't widely/unanimously considered Generational.

He must have been talking about Vice-Chairman of Oilers Entertainment Group, Wayne Gretzky.

No luck for the Coyotes. Schmaltz put up 5g 9a in 17 games since the trade.

INJURY UPDATE: #Coyotes center Nick Schmaltz will be sidelined for the remainder of the season because of a lower-body injury.

I don't think that'll go away, but I always chuckle when I hear it.

If Matthews went to Columbus, few in Toronto would know who Matthew Austin is. But he's 'generational'

Wow, tough break.. that hurts big time.

I'm not convinced Hughes is the next "big thing" honestly, I feel its pretty over hyped mind you I've seen limited showings.

Just my gut feeling, I don't see him carrying a team like Crosby/McDavid etc.

The Coyotes getting Hughes would actually make their forward group look pretty damn dangerous, especially if Keller, Schmaltz, Garland, and Galchenyuk continue to progress

2019-20 Coyotes???

Keller - Hughes - Schmaltz
Fischer - Stepan - Galchenyuk
Grabner - Dvorak - Garland
Crouse - Richardson - Panik (UFA)/Hinostroza
Cousins

OEL - Demers
Chychrun - Goligoski
Oesterle (UFA) - Hjalmarsson
Lyubushkin

Raanta
Hill

Lots to like there. The Coyotes just have a metric ton of injuries. The bolded guys are currently out long-term. Demers and Schmaltz play on their top pairing and line and are out for the season. Ridiculous stuff.

You mean the kid who unprecedentedly left North America in his final junior season to play pro in Europe, where he lit it up?

Then scored 40 goals in his rookie season?

Yeah, what a nobody.
