The Arizona Coyotes will be an interesting team to watch as we approach the NHL's trade deadline. With names like Jakob Chychrun and Nick Bjugstad drawing the most buzz, one player to keep an eye on is goaltender Karel Vejmelka.

According to Craig Morgan of PHNX Sports, if the Coyotes are to trade Vejmelka, they want more than a second-round pick and it would have to take a pretty significant offer for General Manager Bill Armstrong to consider.
"I don't think the Coyotes would take a second-round pick for Vejmelka. A team would really have to make a significant offer." Morgan said.

The Trebic (Czechia) native is under contract for two more years following the 2022-23 season with a cap hit of $2.725 million.
In 36 games this season, the 26-year-old has a record of 14-17-4 with a 3.16 GAA, .908 save percentage and three shutouts.
