Analysis:
Moore managed just five points and a minus-11 rating in 19 games for the Coyotes after being sent to Arizona in the Keith Yandle deal, and he's never recorded more than 15 points in a season. However, Moore's still only 24 years old and a former first-round pick (21st overall in 2009) by the Blue Jackets. He'll look for work with another franchise, but may be forced to settle for a two-way deal.
