Jason Zucker News
The Nashville Predators have acquired forward Jason Zucker from the Arizona Coyotes in exchange for a 2024 sixth-round pick that originally belonged to the Dallas Stars. The Coyotes are not retaining any of Zucker's $5.3 million cap hit, lessening the return as a result. Zucker, who has been held out of the past two games for trade-related reasons, has recorded nine goals and 25 points across 51 games on the season. A veteran of 679 career NHL games, Zucker has tallied 191 goals and 363 points in that time. The Predators have won nine of their last 10 games, catapulting them into the top Wild Card spot in the Western Conference.
Arizona Coyotes winger Jason Zucker will once again be held out of the lineup for trade-related reasons for Thursday's contest versus the visiting Minnesota Wild. Zucker was held out of Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Blackhawks as the pending free agent is likely to be traded prior to Friday's trade deadline and the club protects against injury. The 32-year-old has had a decent season on a poor Coyotes offense with nine goals and 25 points across 51 games while registering 104 shots on goal in that time. He has averaged 14:02 minutes of ice time per game and has brought his typical physicality with 74 hits on the campaign. The Coyotes will be moving out pieces as they sit 18 points behind the final Wild Card spot in the Western Conference.
Arizona Coyotes winger Jason Zucker will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday due to the looming trade deadline. Zucker is likely to be dealt before Friday and Arizona wants to keep him healthy until then. The 32-year-old has 25 points (nine goals, 16 assists) in 51 games this year with the Yotes, and could provide some depth scoring for a contender. He isn't likely to be relevant in fantasy outside of deeper leagues, but he could hold some streamer appeal.
Arizona Coyotes winger Jason Zucker has received a three-game suspension for boarding Florida forward Nick Cousins on Tuesday night. Cousins landed in concussion protocol as a result of the hit. Zucker had previously never been fined or suspended in his 13-year NHL career. The veteran winger is playing his first year in Arizona and has registered 12 points (six goals, six assists) in 29 outings. It's been a disappointing campaign for him, and Zucker's lack of form has even resulted in him being relegated to the fourth line. Maybe a break in action will actually be good for him. Zucker will be eligible to return to the lineup on Jan. 11 versus Calgary.
