Arizona Coyotes Shopping For Free Agent D-men 2016

There are 10 NHL D-men who will be free agents next July, available to the Arizona Coyotes

The Arizona Coyotes could use some good defensemen who could improve their blue-line. They will still have Z Michalek for another year, but unless young Connor Murphy, or Brandon Gormley start to progress, they will need more experienced D-men to fortify things. They did sign Nicklas Grossmann for one-year at $3.5 million, and his contract will be up next July as well.

The only Coyotes’ defenseman with a long-term contract is Oliver Ekman-Larsson, who is signed through the 2018-19 season. Michael Stone, Connor Murphy, Brandon Gormley, and Klas Dahlbeck will all become restricted free agents after the 2015-16 season. All the more reason to look at who is out there as free agents, to add to the Arizona Coyotes roster.
