2018-19 Season

The 2018-19 also had some key trades. November the Coyotes cleaned house and brought in Nick Schmaltz for the struggling Dylan Strome and Brendan Perlini.

Schmaltz has become a part of the Coyotes future core, while Strome has done similar in Chicago. Perlini, on the other hand, is still looking to find a home.

December January and February also saw trades. The ‘Yotes made deals with the Anaheim Ducks, Philadelphia Flyers, Montreal Canadiens, and Nashville Predators.

None of those trades were very noticeable so we did not feel the need to call them out individually. Now let’s see if we can use the past to predict the future.
