Confirmed with Link: Zack Kassian and Patrik Nemeth bought out

[RABBIT]

Craig Morgan hinted there was a culture issue with Kassian on the PHNX podcast.

If true, that doesn't entirely surprise me.

So ends the Zack Kassian era. Quite possibly my least favorite coyotes player ever.

 

[Dr VinnyBoombatz]

Even Rustic-Auburn-Sunset what's his face tried harder than Kassian did. Just a big pile of goo out there on the ice...no spark, no intensity, just a big blob. Glad he's gone.

 

[Jamieh]

Yeah take it with a grain of salt ... he is part of that Canadian uninformed media I always refer to.. but when you hear this along with other stories , that Muerelo wants a more positive spin since the failed TED .. you never know

Shouldn't he be part of the uninformed US media?

 

[The Feckless Puck]

Shouldn't he be part of the uninformed US media?

How about we call him a "pilot fish" of hockey journalism? One of the many hangers-on who stay in business more for their ability to fish for rumors and hearsay than for anything someone would learn in J-school.

hehe you say potato...etc.... actually you are right .. I see him so much on the Canucks , I forgot he was the states ..

yeah ...and I actually excited when we got him ... oh well .

No way. There's so many worse ones. I mean Riberio should be pretty firmly at the top of the list.

 

[GiveAFlyingPuck]

Coyotes worst players ever?

Kassian
Crombeen
Scott
Ribiero

Any more to add or subtract from this list?

Need nominees for a poll.

That's the one thing I'll remember from getting to talk to Matt McConnell at an STH event, that he said Peter Holland's "don't give a sh*t meter is off the charts".

That's what I thought about Kassian. His 2nd goal about a month before the season ended kept him from beating BizNasty's record for worst PPG by a forward in team history.

Brett Hull

May need a minimum amount of games played, say 40?

Unless you include rounds of golf.

Don't worry, this can be spun as reducing actual cash owed over the next two seasons and only was an option because with all the RFAs we are set to hit the capfloor no problem. And everyone knows the real reason is we were actually at risk of going over the cap with all the asset laden LTIR pick-ups we're about to grab.

Isn't that basically the job?

 

[GhostofTommyBolin]

Get ready for the HF shitstorm as they are gearing up to take on another dead contract

OEL is available. His is a dead contract, but he would suit up.

 

[Hogan20]

Wouldn't be surprised if Tyler Myers now fills that void left by Nemeth. Kesselring doesn't deserve to be an any night player but he will get his shot with injuries/guys getting traded at the TDL.

Problem with Myers is his bonus doesn’t get paid until September.

What would we demand from Van to take on Myers and actually pay the bonus?

 

[moosemeister]

That’s not much of an issue unless a team like Chicago takes him before the bonus.

It means you can’t have a backup plan.

 

[moosemeister]

I almost feel like he is the backup plan. Get another guy like Brown, if he shows during camp that he isn’t worth a damn, circle back to Vancouver who is likely sweating bullets to get the guy moved at that point.
