Tobias Rieder's departure would be the biggest loss of the offseason for the Coyotes. Where will they be if he bolts?
At this juncture, it’s difficult to say if Tobias Rieder’s potential flight to the Kontinental Hockey League is genuine or is a leverage move in the RFA’s negotiation with the Arizona Coyotes. It’s a dramatic step for a young forward who has played a major role for his NHL club thus far to take, but contract talks between the two teams have not yielded much in the way of positive news.
With the signings of Michael Stone and Connor Murphy, Rieder remains the last RFA without a deal.
