Jakob Chychrun hinting at a trade to Toronto?
Does the Coyotes defenseman know something we don't?
Arizona Coyotes star defenseman Jakob Chychrun is causing a firestorm on social media, although admittedly it is too early to call this anything more than pure speculation at this time.
Chychrun has set social media ablaze with trade speculation after keen observers on social media discovered that his Instagram account has removed all mentions of the Arizona Coyotes from his bio and that is also true of his Twitter as well.
You can see a screenshot of his Instagram bio here:
Here is a look at his bio on Twitter:
What makes this even more bizarre is that after removing all mentions of the Coyotes from his bios on social media, Chychrun can also be seen following several players from the Maple Leafs roster including the likes of Mitch Marner, Michael Bunting, and of course the team's star player in Auston Matthews.
Here is a look at him following the Leafs' players:
It must be stated that none of this means that Chychrun has been traded to the Maple Leafs, or even that he will be traded to the Maple Leafs in the future, after all Auston Matthews is from Arizona and it could merely be that the guys all like to pal around down in the desert. Regardless of whether or not Chychrun will be moved in the near future, this has certainly caused a great deal of wild speculation ahead of the National Hockey League's rapidly approaching trade deadline.
