Around the NHL #5 (The Mike Smith Tracking Thread Returns)

[RemoAZ]

Yotes only compete against the Cards for a couple of months...their season usually ends in December.

I'm not talking attendance. TV and sports talk but you're right. It's not that long but being solely against baseball all summer could be a boost for the popularity of the sport. A winter sport during the summer could be weird for people though and wearing my jersey for happy hour before the game would be murder.

Does this make it easier or harder to get Eichel.

 

[Mosby]

Just have them miss the playoffs for the 10th year in a row and he'll ask out.

Adams will always have a place in my heart for being the guy we originally traded for Radim Vrbata.

He just completed his fifth season with the Sabres. He's now on his 3rd GM, and 3rd Head Coach. LOOOOL. He as drafted in 2015 FFS - and Tim Murray JUST took over as GM in 2014. Hahaha. Four GMs in six years. The Coyotes have had five GMs in their history. Bobby Smith, Cliff Fletcher, Mike Barnett, Don Maloney, and John Chayka. That's in 24 years. Haha.

He will be on the NHL network in a year, just like Brian Lawton.

If you combine Fletcher and Barnett as one, your order of GM's is from best to worst.

Who? Botterill? He was very highly regarded before he stepped into the cesspit, right? He may get another kick at the can and be successful. Not unlike how skilled players come here to struggle and then have success elsewhere like Domi, Duclair and Strome.

Buffalo cleaning house....

 

[Mosby]

There are now three GMs on Buffalo’s payroll. Today was a good, much needed house cleaning but they should have brought in a GM from outside. I’d have probably fired Krueger too and let the new GM figure that out.

No chance Eichel or Kim were firing Krueger!!!

They had three head coaches on the bench a couple of years ago. This seems normal for them.

Friedman updated to say nearly 30 people got the axe today (all the way down to the IT guy )...... this was a freaking purge.

Final body count.....

2020 Buffalo just turned into the 2009 Coyotes.

 

[TheLegend]

Friedman is reporting three TB Lightning players and two staffers have tested positive and their Phase 2 workouts have been shut down.

Odds that this playoff thing never happens? Very high I'd say.

They don't have the cojones to play in the current environment, and the hysteria isn't going to fade anytime soon, it appears. It'd be better to just cancel it.

Auston Matthews tested positive for COVID-19, and the Toronto Sun report on it mentions that several Arizona Coyotes players are also COVID-positive.

But sure, fellas! Let's just keep the bars open in Scottsdale!

Glad Canadian media is covering the Coyotes.

That cancer Matthews is now trying to infect Canada! Trade his sorry ass back to the stadium in the middle of nowhere!!! Please...

 

[Edenjung]

I am wondering why the NHl did not consider having the whole stuff in europe.
Get them into a few mountain towns in Switzerland or have them stay in rural czech and let them play in arenas in germany.

We've been practicing social distancing at Gila River Arena (nee Jobing.com Arena) since 2003.
