Though it didn’t end in a playoff berth or Stanley Cup glory, last season was a magical one for Arizona Coyotes fans.
The franchise began to see the fruit of it’s rebuilding labor blossom.
That charge was led by rookie forwards Anthony Duclair and Max Domi.
Duclair was acquired from the New York Rangers in the trade that sent Keith Yandle to the East.
Duke spent his first season in the desert chipping in 20 goals and 49 points. Not too shabby.
Now that Yandle will be patrolling the blue-line in Florida and didn’t remain with the Rangers, the trade looks even better.
