Coyotes players refuse to play or re-sign?

[ViD]

Don’t know if it’s even possible from the legal standpoint and how credible this is, but here we go





It also appears that he already deleted the tweets but the damage is done

 

[M88K]

He'd be great in Dallas

Any source that isn't a random instagram account? Pretty sure this would be big news and actual sources would be talking about it.

I added another one with a screenshot of Keller’s dad tweet

Doubt any player will risk their paycheck and sit out/force a trade

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Trade any RFA that refuses to sign and sign a bunch of UFA's looking for job to fill out roster for year

Suspend without pay and toll contracts of players who refuse to suit up that are under contract

Problem solved

A chance for someone on HF to use "resign" correctly and it goes begging. What an opportunity missed.

Thanks. I don't think there is much to this aside from a salty dad who was too many beers in. Pretty cut and dry from NHL perspective, the players fail to report and are suspended without pay. Keller gives up significant earnings in the prime of his career.

And the other point is, how many players in Arizona are in a position to do this? He says many others, and yet the team is made up of NHLers clinging to their careers or trying to establish themselves.

All in all, this is nothing.

I mean they can’t resign, can they ? They can re-sigh though

I wonder if he means they will demand a trade by the beginning of the season

Nothing like helicoptering parents on social media putting words on their millionaire adult kids’ mouths…

Bryan Keller definitely will not be playing with the Coyotes next season, so glad he’s making a stand!

It’s hilarious because he talks as if *he* is Clayton Keller. He doesn’t even say “Clayton thinks this…”. His quote is basically I’m dad and I’m mad and I’m gonna keep Clayton home from practice until you make me happy!

No idea. I'd say "my company is forcing me to relocate several thousand miles or into another country for work and I don't want to do it" is valid grounds for resigning or quitting your job, but given the NHL operates as a franchise system where players can be traded, it probably isn't.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

He can ask for a trade but if he doesn't show up to training camp he can sit at home and not make his 7 million a year.

It's a Instagram and if its confirmed it's his dad the agent needs to talk to him.

 

[Unspecified]

For the sake of Clayton Keller i hope his dad is his agent....

 

[Necrobutcher]

Is it just me or couldn't this be interpreted as fighting for the Coyotes to stay in Arizona? Kinda confusing post.

 

[Sol]

Don’t blame players for leaving. Imagine working at Hooters and having guys talking about blowing your back out vs having the option to work for a top end restaurant that has stability and respect for their employees.

 

[llamateizer]

Not playing will get Keller suspended without pay... Sadly it won't count against the cap so ARI reaches floor cap

 

[WarriorofTime]

He can ask for a trade, or else he'll report where he's told to report or forfeit his salary and ability to play in the NHL if he doesn't show up.

 

[TropicOfNoReturn]

The headline reads as though Keller's father is stating that he, Brian Keller, will not be playing for the Coyotes next season. Not sure that that is breaking news....

 

[Bonin21]

What other best players of a team have dads that are making bold statements on social media? That's brutal.

 

[Kimota]

I mean I don't blame them. This should have happened a long time ago.

Should the players lick Gary's and all the owners' boots next?

 

[Machinehead]

Are we sure this is even real? Looks young in that picture to have a 24-year-old son.

Tell me clayton keller's family is extremely wealthy without telling me clayton kellers family is extremely wealthy type beat

 

[BigDaddyLurch]
