Current Coyotes governor George Gosbee said previously that when Barroway takes over, he and the current members of IceArizona will combine to infuse $30 million directly back into the team, with as much as $9 million going directly to payroll. If true, that could make the Coyotes more significant players during free agency this offseason, although this summer's free-agent class is not considered strong. Barroway's arrival could also give GM Don Maloney more immediate guidance as he looks to retool the roster after a disappointing start to the season.
Interesting quote from the article.
Sounds like with the influx of cash and some input from ownership we'll see where we go from here. Hopefully it's a pending UFA sell off and a yandle extension right away.
I'd like to think maloney and tip are smarter than that. If they're not then I'm grabbing my torch and pitchfork.Really hope it's this and not trading for rentals who will help us push for the playoffs, miss them, and pick #12 again.

7. Andrew Barroway attended Arizona’s win over Philadelphia, poised to become majority owner of the Coyotes on New Year’s Eve. His first public comments could come later this week, so we should get a clearer idea of what happens to the team’s roster. The NHL isn’t commenting on this, but a few sources indicated commissioner Gary Bettman would not approve the sale until more of the money from it was put back into the team, especially since the current owners are maintaining a minority position.
8. This may not, however, affect Maloney’s immediate decision-making. The organization is realistic about where this season is going, so it doesn’t make a ton of sense to spend extra now.

Sounds like the staff knows this season is well down the toilet. So bad that the Mario brothers can't even help us.

I guess the irony of it is that they don't need the money in the slightest next year.
So much for all those "sources" saying the deal fell apart.
