It's Believed That Jakob Chychrun Has Been Traded to The Oilers Due to Recent Evidence
One such player is star defenceman Jakob Chychrun of the Arizona Coyotes. He just recently removed any mention of the Coyotes in his social media bio.
The 24-year-old Chychrun has been involved in trade rumors for over a calendar year and yet teams have not pulled the trigger on a trade due to the return demanded by GM Bill Armstrong.
That demand includes at least two first round picks and a prospect. One of the first rounders can be a player chosen in the first round of recent drafts. But, make no mistake Armstrong has the upper hand in negotiations.
That holds true since he has Chychrun under contract for two more seasons at a very reasonable $4.6M, after the current campaign. The Boca Raton, Florida native doesn't possess a no-trade clause until after this season.
The reason it may be assumed that Chychrun is headed to the Edmonton Oilers is most NHL players will change their social media bio right before or after they are traded.
This most recently occurred when Johnny Gaudreau was traded. What really sends an even more clear signal about Chychrun to the Oilers is when McDavid followed him.
It could just be a coincidence, but why hadn't McDavid followed Chychrun prior to now? Social media has really changed how the world discovers information and news in current time.
One recent rumor involved a prospective trade adding Chychrun to the Oilers roster.

There's no doubt that Chychrun could help most any NHL team. He has mentioned that he wishes to go to a contender. Well, in Edmonton with two of the best players on the planet, he will have that opportunity.
The Oilers have really come on of late gathering a 7-1-2 record in their last 10 games. They now reside in the first wild-card position and are just three points behind the Pacific Division leading Seattle Kraken.
If could be announced anytime now that Chychrun will be heading to another team. Could it be the Oilers? It sure seems possible.
