Arizona is the shittiest ran team ever in NHL. WTF? I feel so, so sry for the youngsters there. Why the f*** do you have to committ to a shitty team that only exists for cap-circumvention for other teams? If the team doesnt even try to be competative, why are they allowed to destroy youngsters careers?

I`m so sry for you guys!

Keller
Schmaltz
Crouse
Maccelli
Välimäki
etc

You deserve much better! I`m also sry for the fans of that so called "franchise". It`s time to relocate or sell the dumpster.

[Oddbob]

Because its doing Arizona a favor more than Columbus

Yes, I know that. It was more tongue in cheek about how bad the Coyotes are at business.

 

[ThankGord]

is there any team in any other sport that operates like this?

[jonlin]

Keep hating if you want, imo this conversation says more about you than it ever will about the Yotes

Nobody is hating the team! The team is trying. The hate goes against shitty, sry ass ownership, GM and Bettman! We feel sry for the coaches, players and fans. It`s f***ing laughable what that sry ass dipshit ownership does and its actually super-bad PR for the league. Do you want to be a dumpster?

That was BEFORE Arizona went all-in taking on LTIR contracts, retained on any player they could this deadline! Its f***ing pathetic.

AZ has been doing this for years lol

 

[paragon]

embarrassing. Especially after botching the Chychrun trade because they wouldn’t take back any salary.

Retaining salary on Chycrun would mean using real dollars. Cap space on Vorachek is free if his salary is covered by insurance.

 

[viper0220]

Only a sixth round pick for taking on that contract? Wow. That does not seem like a lot

If you think about it, Insurance will likely pay out the contract, The Blue Jackets could have done that.

The A's, kind of

 

[LOFIN]

I've generally been pretty indifferent with Arizona. I don't mind that Bettman has given that franchise a chance, and I hope that new arena works out.

But this is a f***ing joke. Not only is it a mockery of a sport franchise for the fans, it hurts the players, and it hurts the owners.

 

[ShootIt]

The Coyotes alumni team is loaded.

I really hope they get audited by the insurance companies paying these contracts one day

They have actually went all-in at it this deadline.

Not functioning is that right.

Last I checked... (just now), we're ahead of SJ, ANA, CBJ and oooh Chicago in the standings. I guess those franchises aren't functioning either in this competitive league, they're not even as competitive as the Yotes. Should we fold Chicago too? Looks like they're in the middle of trading all their players as well.

Keep hating if you want, imo this conversation says more about you than it ever will about the Yotes

You can keep playing dumb but you know I'm not talking about the standings but about how the organization is going about its business. Nobody can control games and players are still players but the Coyotes have absolutely zero intention of improving the team for the next several years and their primary motivations in trade is less money. That's a joke.

 

[Poppy Whoa Sonnet]

Arizona gonna pay a pick to dump Schmaltz's ~25m owed over the next 3 years

 

[OilWagon]

Arizona is an absolute joke.

 

[KevinRedkey]

No, they won a gimmick play in round and were then stomped in 4 games out of the playoffs.

Which is more than many franchises, so I don't really see how diminishing their success proves any point at all.
