The Arizona Coyotes are all ears.

With the club sitting tied for last place in the NHL standings, the team could be willing to make a deal, more specifically one including forward Anthony Duclair.

TSN's Darren Dreger spoke on Tuesday's Insider Trading segment where he reported that though the Coyotes are not actively shopping the 21-year-old, they would consider a move if it was a significant deal that made sense to the team and saw a center come back the Coyotes' way.

Dreger would go on further to note that this is not the first time Duclair's name has come up in trade talks, adding that his name was thrown around during the draft in Buffalo this summer.

After a commendable 20 goals and 44 points in his rookie campaign last season, Duclair is falling victim to the sophomore slump, having posted just one goal and three assists in 20 games.

The Boston Bruins will be without John-Michael Liles indefinitely as the team announced Tuesday that the defenseman has been sidelined with a concussion.

Liles has appeared in 22 games this season, scoring five points and averaging 16:15 in ice time.

The Bruins acquired Liles from the Carolina Hurricanes at last year's trade deadline.

The San Jose Sharks need more from Mikkel Boedker.

After signing a four-year, $16-million contract with San Jose after spending his entire career with the Arizona Coyotes - save for last year's trade deadline deal that sent him to the Colorado Avalanche - Boedker has yet to find a role with the Sharks, or much of the net.

The move to Silicon Valley reunited Boedker with coach Peter DeBoer, who he had previously played under while with the OHL's Kitchener Rangers, when he scored 73 points in 62 games. But the reunion hasn't yielded immediate returns, with Boedker recording just two points in 22 contests.

In Saturday's 3-2 to the Anaheim Ducks, the Danish winger saw a season-low in ice time, coming in at 8:56 after being kept off the ice for the entire third period. DeBoer hopes the benching will spark the streaky winger.

"I would hope he's pissed off. (Benching) is always a last resort as a coach," DeBoer told Kevin Kurz of CSN Bay Area. "There's no doubt (he's squeezing his stick). He's a point producer, and his contract says he should be producing points."

Boedker scored 39 points in 62 games with the Coyotes last season before adding 12 in 18 with the Avs, tying his career-high of 51 points set in 2013-14.

"You've got to get out of that mindset. This is about winning games, and that stuff will follow," DeBoer added. "It's not an easy spot to be in where he's at, but you've got to battle through."

Boedker will be in the lineup Tuesday when the Sharks take on his former club, the Coyotes. As fate would have it, Boedker's last point on the season came in a Nov. 1 loss to Arizona.

Team Canada named their 32 invitees to selection camp for the upcoming World Junior Hockey Championship on Tuesday, but the team is still eyeing a few other potential players.

Lawson Crouse and Anthony Beauvillier remain with their respective NHL clubs - the Arizona Coyotes and New York Islanders - at present, but Hockey Canada's director of player personnel Ryan Jankowski is hopeful both players might be loaned to Canada for the tournament.

"Scott Salmond (vice president of hockey operations) has been in touch with Garth Snow and John Chayka and those discussions continue and hopefully we'll catch a break with both of them, if not one," Jankowski told TSN's Gino Reda. "We'll keep talking and hopefully let the teams know that obviously we're interested and what an experience it would be for both those players."

Of course, Crouse would certainly be a welcomed addition after suiting up for Canada at the past two installments of the tournament, including the 2015 gold medal-winning squad. He currently has just one goal in 16 games with the Coyotes this season.

Meanwhile Beauvillier would also add more experience to the team having suited up last year, managing one goal in Canada's five games. The 19-year-old currently has two goals and six points in 17 games with the Islanders.

It looks like Peter Holland's time in Toronto is coming to a close.

The Maple Leafs forward didn't accompany the team on their three-game road trip this week, and his agent met with general manager Lou Lamoriello, who will try to trade the 25-year-old:

Holland has struggled to earn ice time this season, only appearing in eight games in which he's recorded a lone assist.

The Maple Leafs acquired Holland in 2013-14, and he's recorded 70 points in 203 NHL contests.

Campbell caught wind of Ekblad's comments, and responded via Twitter in the nicest of ways:

Round 2 between Auston Matthews and Connor McDavid goes Tuesday night, and here's hoping for a little more intrigue this time around.

The first battle between the two most recent No. 1 picks was overshadowed by Nazem Kadri, who potted two goals for the Maple Leafs while the 19-year-old phenoms were held off the scoresheet.

The Oilers captain currently paces the NHL in points, while Matthews sits one point back of the rookie lead, 21 games into his inaugural campaign.

As the two rising stars collide for the last time this season - barring an incredibly unlikely meeting in the Stanley Cup Final - here's a look at their production rates through 21 games in their respective careers.

Advantage McDavid, who was sidelined 13 games into his rookie season with a broken collarbone, but returned with something to prove.

He netted 13 points in his next eight games, including a career-high five-point effort Feb. 11 versus - that's right - Toronto.
