First off, no. This trade is not going to happen. Kessel will not accept a trade to Arizona given the drama with the Glendale City Council. Under better circumstances, this trade could happen. As of now, no. I’ve read rumors that the Toronto Maple Leafs and Arizona Coyotes have already discussed a Kessel trade, but was decline because Kessel would not accept a trade to the Yotes.
Arizona gets:
Phil Kessel – Winger
Tyler Bozak – Center
2015 3rd/4th Round Draft Pick – Toronto
Toronto gets:
Mark Arcobello – Center
2015 3rd Overall – Arizona
2016 1st Round Draft Pick – New York Rangers
Again, this trade has about a 5% chance of happening. I thought I’d post it anyway just to see what you guys thought. If Kessel didn’t have his NTC, it’d be around a 60%-70% chance of happening.
