Taylor Hall will test the open market.
Arizona Coyotes general manager Bill Armstrong said Wednesday the club won't be re-signing the pending unrestricted free-agent forward, according to Craig Morgan of AZ Coyotes Insider.
The news comes as no surprise, as Armstrong was reportedly shopping the 28-year-old's negotiation rights as of Monday.
Former Coyotes GM John Chayka surrendered a 2020 first-round pick, a 2021 third-round pick, and prospects Kevin Bahl, Nick Merkley, and Nate Schnarr to acquire Hall from the New Jersey Devils in December. The Devils used the 2020 first-rounder to select Dawson Mercer 18th overall on Tuesday.
Hall, the 2010 first overall pick and 2018 Hart Trophy winner, tallied 52 points in 65 games this past season and is the top UFA forward. Free agency opens Friday at noon ET.
