Nashville Predators top-15 pick demands to be traded
Juuse Saros inked a long-term extension in Nashville this off-season, and now, it appears to be leading to the departure of a former top pick.
The future of Juuse Saros has been a major talking point in Nashville for the past few trade deadlines, but the two parties put that conversation to bed this summer, inking him to an eight-year deal worth $7.5 million AAV.
Now, former first-round pick Yaroslav Askarov appears to want out, with his agent Dan Millstein hinting towards that in a recent interview.
«Askarov has the potential & should become an elite goaltender in the NHL. Recently we have been working together with the club under different scenarios. Yaroslav has proven himself that he's an NHL player»
Given Saros' production and consistency, it makes sense for the team to keep him long-term, but now, all signs are point to Askorov asking out.
Given that Askarov is still young, a deal doesn't have to happen soon, but if he has desires to start in the NHL, expect it to become a major talking point in Nashville.
