The Arizona Coyotes have a pair of offers for the third overall pick in Friday's NHL Entry Draft, and one team is making a big push to acquire the Coyotes' selection.

"One team is being really aggressive," Coyotes general manager Don Maloney said Tuesday night, according to Sportsnet's Chris Johnston.

The GM said he had two offers, one of which could be characterized as firm.

He added he has an offer to trade the third pick for a selection in the top 10 that is several slots below.

On Tuesday afternoon, Maloney said at least six teams inquired about a trade involving the pick and he received two offers.
