Coyotes and Taylor Hall are in talks regarding a contract extension
The coronavirus lockdown isn’t stopping the Arizona Coyotes from getting to business.
In recent days, the team has reportedly had discussions for pending unrestricted free agent Taylor Hall about a potential long-term contract extension.
“I have shared some calls with Darren (Taylor Hall’s agent). I think we’re both just trying to get our head wrapped around this scenario here and how it affects the Coyotes; how it potentially affects Taylor. It’s unique,” said Coyotes General Manager John Chayka.
“I don’t have an answer for you other than to say, no, we haven’t exchanged numbers or anything like that.
The 28-year old was initially acquired by the Coyotes in a multiplayer deal with the New Jersey Devils on December 16.
Hall, a five-time NHL All-Star and recipient of the Hart Memorial Trophy in 2018, has compiled 10 goals, 17 assists and a minus-3 rating in 35 games in the Grand Canyon State.
