To say that Arizona Coyotes forward Anthony Duclair has experienced a sophomore slump would probably be an understatement. What will it take to get him going again?

The Arizona Coyotes have a decision to make.

With two goal and four assists through 31 games, it’s fair to say that Anthony Duclair probably wouldn’t mind a do-over.

Unfortunately, however, there is no reset button in the NHL.

A combination of bad luck, inconsistent play, and low ice time have brought the Duke to this point. Now the challenge is up to get him out of the slump.

And get him out the Coyotes must if they want him to be a key piece of the team’s future.

Apart from trading him (if all else fails) the Coyotes have two options to bring him back up to speed.
