The League has been clear and decisive forever, cheating will not be tolerated and punished harshly. Anyone who expected a small punishment hasn't been paying attention. Some folks here tried to wash it aside as stretchgate forever while some of us kept saying there was more there. The noise was there.

The fortunate thing is, I don't think we could get much worse if he did take on head coach duties.

I wasn’t suggesting HC duties. I was suggesting he run the D and PK as Stillman runs the the F and PP while Varady is interim HC.

The thing is that this isn’t really congruous with how the world generally works. An employee committed a crime. The employer was not found by any evidence to have contributed via negligence or any other knowing or intentional manner to the crime. The employee was subject to punishment. Why should the employee be? They wouldn’t usually be in most instances.
If one of John Chayka’s Wendy’s Managers who had a completely clean criminal and employment record with no prior red flags of any kind, suddenly showed up in a ski mask with a shotgun and took all the money from the registers, employees, and customers before being shot dead by the police, should John Chayka (as his employer) be prosecuted and sentenced in his place, simply because in the death of the criminal, they escaped the reach of the courts?
This isn't a normal work situation and no one is being convicted of a crime, but if you want use an example let's say the CEO of an Organization sexually abuses staff. Do you think the abused staff members would sue just the CEO? The CEO would get his punishmen and the Organization would also be paying compensation. The Coyotes have admitted to their wrongdoing, might be time to accept that.
Why are we even discussing this? The Coyote's accepted the NHL penalty. To bad Chayka's penalty, the asshole behind all this, is less severe than the Coyotes.

It’s pretty unbelievable they didn’t fire Tocchet yesterday. I hope they don’t win another game until he’s fired.
Old joke based on a poster here asserting that Chayka was a top 5 GM in the League.
The simpleton in me can only assume its money??? Or rt has pictures of someone with a goat.
I wish we knew what BA is thinking. Does he think RT is doing a good job? Is he afraid of bad PR if he fires RT? Does he have a coach already selected not with the organization and is letting the season ride out? Does he blame the roster not the coaching? Another year another sad ending.
Are you forgetting Phil??The only thing we have that is top 5 is Hayton. Look how that is turning out.
Look how that is turned out.
Would be key if he came out and addressed where he’s at. It’s as easy as saying he plans on reevaluating the team and coaching staff at the end of the year or that he has some sort of time line?
Fire Tochett, hire Gallant, see who does well under Gallant, drop the dead weight at years end and build with the cap available.

Mr astute businessman really thinks people are going to drive across the valley and pay good money to watch that apparently

Tocchet "doesn't have enough talent" but loses to the Ducks. And gets outshot.
Right.

We haven't had a game worth watching since the STL series.
Coach, if there is some honor in you, take your Baggage and quit your contract.
Loved you as a player, but we cant move forward any yard with this coaching style.

Trading OEL, Kessel, and Kuemper may not even be enough to stay above water. And those 3 things are far from a given.
Fun times.
