Are the Coyotes Done this Offseason?

[RABBIT]

It's been one of the most exciting offseasons we have ever had thus far. We got our first superstar since the Roenick/Tkachuk days, a billionaire owner passionate about winning and keeping the team in Arizona, a big net front presence who can potentially pot 20 goals, and we re-signed pretty much everyone worth re-signing.

However it wasn't all great. Letting Scott Allen walk for nothing is tough, and our depth looks somewhat weaker than years prior, but all-in-all i would consider this summer a huge step forward.

Do you think the Coyotes are done?

Sadly yes. I’d prefer they ditch Hossa and give Boyle and Shattenkirk each one-year deals in an effort to give Hayton and Soderstrom each another development year. I doubt any of that will happen, though.

I think Chayka really wants to see Hayton and Soderstrom in the NHL this season. I think he’d rather not give his coaching staff too many other options.

I don’t like rushing prospects. I don’t like penciling in spots. I don’t like our lack of depth when injuries inevitably hit us.

I feel like Chayka is banking on not getting struck by injury lightning twice. Probability doesn’t work that way. Yes the injury coin toss came up tails six times in a row last season. Doesn’t mean we’re any more likely to get heads. Luck does not necessarily even out.

Personally, I believe there could be some minor moves or things like that but the Yotes are done with the big stuff for the roster. Now that I've said it... looking for Chayka and Co to come prove me wrong ha.

But I am happy enough with the off season so far.

I think we have one more relatively minor deal to be made. Like a middle 6 player we sign, or maybe trade for.

Please sign a Maroon for the 4th line.

I agree. We need depth, at least a middle LW that fits the system.

 

[Mosby]

Please sign a Maroon for the 4th line.

This. If he's willing to come to Arizona, I think we sign him.

 

[SpaceCoyote]

Wouldn't mind Frolik for our middle 6 if we could make the numbers work, seems like the flames need more space for RFAs even after the Stone buy out.

 

[RemoAZ]

They are gearing up for the Matthews deal after someone offer sheets Marner. E5

No it doesn't but a low probability is still a low probability. So unless you think the probability of getting slammed by injuries like that is high, banking it won't happen this season is still sound.

Luck does not necessarily even out.

It's too bad because if luck evened out the Coyotes would be on the cusp of a dynasty!

Luck does not necessarily even out.

I used to yell this at fellow baseball fans through the interwebs in the 00's and I was mostly ignored. And even if it does turn around it doesn't have to do so on your timetable.

But anyway I think if you look at the injuries we can separate some luck from non-luck ones:
Chychrun: Probably not bad luck (unfortunately)
Raanta injury #1 (probably bad luck)
Raanta injury #2 ( I don't think this was bad luck I thought he was rushed back)
Schmaltz (probably bad luck)
Capo (Bad luck)
Demers (bad luck)


Speaking of injuries, I wonder how Grabner's sight is these days.

banking it won't happen this season is still sound.

Being the Coyotes, some other terrible calamity will ensue though.

 

[hbk]

I think we r done until waiver season.

Doesn’t seem to bother his workouts...
