NHL Trade Deadline: Phoenix Coyotes

Filed under: , ,

Last year, Coyotes general manager Don Maloney was the King of the Trade Deadline. On the final day, he swung seven deals.

So what might he have in store this season, especially with his team atop the division?

"It's so hard to say. The morning of the deadline last year, I didn't think I'd do one deal, and we wound up with seven trades," Maloney told FanHouse. "I do think there will be a lot of dealing, but I think it will be just shuffling.

"I can't say how active we'll be. Last year, we were able to do some things, but this year, we don't have as much flexibility. A lot of teams will be like us."

Maloney said this week that the team now might be looking for a veteran defenseman, in light of facial injuries that will sideline Ed Jovanovski for the rest of the season, and he specifically has mentioned Toronto, Ottawa and Florida as places that teams with needs might look.
