Rumors swirl on NHL Draft Day
It's an interesting time to be Arizona Coyotes general manager Don Maloney. It's the day of the 2015 NHL Draft and Maloney is in possession of the #3 pick, poised to possibly select a potential franchise defenseman in Boston College's Noah Hanifin. But he's also got a dilemma to solve - the Coyotes are $18.6 million shy of the NHL's 2015-16 salary floor.
This situation is in stark contrast to what the Boston Bruins (and several other teams) are dealing with - squeezed tightly against the salary cap and in desperate need to add pieces to a roster that stumbled short of a playoff appearance in 2015.
