Wow. That's shocking. Absolutely shocking.

Edit: just read the Morgan article in the Athletic. Zero details or quotes about the change. No indication how or why it went down.

Classic Morgan

Classic Morgan

I think he will update with details as he gets them. Just wanted to get the story out quick for now I think. It’s a big story at a time when there is no other Coyotes news so I get it.

Oops, Fired the Wrong Guy!

Exactly. He’s the one I’d have kept of the entire bunch! This reminds me of when they f***ed over Scott Allen. The only one doing a good job. Lol.

 

[Vinny Boombatz]

I smell whistle-blower

 

[The Feckless Puck]

Coaching staff is returning intact. Meantime, they fire the one guy who's done the most to grow hockey in this ridiculous state we live in.

We can't have nice things.

Oh well, back to hibernation.

[Bonsai Tree]

Let’s not jump to conclusions. The guy has talent. He may have been recruited to a better job.

Definitely a surprise... Definitely wanna see what's going on with this.

Head scratcher for me. I thought he was doing amazing things for not just the coyotes, but hockey here in general.

 

[LuckyNumber11]

Remember when we had a nice thing?

Bad organizations continuing to be bad

 

[Jagged Ice]

Head scratcher for me. I thought he was doing amazing things for not just the coyotes, but hockey here in general.

Yeah same here. Remember the big press conference last year... The "I sure as shit want to win" one. Aaron was a big part of that day.
I'm not going to bring up the C word but if that stupid Simmons rumor has any legs the LA Kings are my new team maybe.

 

[MIGs Dog]

Remember when we had a nice thing?

no

 

[AZviaNJ]

Not good, not good at all. Is this more than "Meruelo wants his guys"? Is part of a financial purge? So many questions, not sure we want to know the answers.

For all anyone knows Cohen may be leaving on his own initiative to a bigger position somewhere else.

The optics of this were not going to be good no matter what so I’ll wait to see how it plays out a little more.

Hopefully that’s true.

 

[TheLegend]

Hopefully that’s true.

Agreed... unlike LeBlanc, Cohen's Twitter account is still active. He just hasn't posted anything in a couple of days.

You would think he would just make a statement then so people don't speculate about another dysfunctional move by the Coyotes??

It's up to the team to make the first statement. I think Morgan got the jump on everyone here and put it out before the team was ready to make the announcement.

So far the Yotes have been crickets, but I would bet now we'll see something before the end of the day.

And well deserved if he did. I hope this is the case. But if not, he won't be out of a job long.

Is this good or bad?
