Unbelievable. f*** this

 

[XX]

Are we ever going to get the full story? This is pretty insanely harsh for something we know almost no details about

 

[moosemeister]

Welp, start trading everything over 25 immediately.

 

[Puck possession wins]

Can't catch a break with this team.

At least we're sparred from paying any money.

 

[Jamieh]

So about that nothing to see here? Chayka has set this team back half a decade.

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

Whats the reason? Seems a little unclear.

 

[RABBIT]

Chayka with no punishment

 

[moosemeister]

Hope Chayka never gets employed again and lives off of 4 for 4's for the rest of his pathetic life. Limp d*** bitch.

While I conclude that certain Club personnel acted in a grossly negligent manner at best, which was conceded by the Club, I ultimately conclude that the record does not establish—to a standard with which I am comfortable—that those individuals engaged in intentional wrongdoing, as opposed to grossly negligent behavior."

So you lose two top 60 picks for negligence? What?

 

[Mosby]

f*** you, Chayka.

 

[RABBIT]

Trading OEL seems much more crucial now. Get two firsts just to make up for Chayka’s losses

Harsh? According to Bettman, he's being LENIENT by not punishing Chayka.

 

[Neighborhood Coyote]

Yea would like more info. That's harsh. ****.

****ing ridiculously Yotes thing to have happen. Well... better hope they do well next year cause damn.

 

[Kristopher Letang]

Why is Chayka getting the blame for this?

Edit: I thought I was on the main board

 

[Jamieh]

Harsh? According to Bettman, he's being LENIENT by not punishing Chayka.

And not punishing the new owner millions in fines. The release said the Coyotes admitted to the wrongdoing

 

[RABBIT]

Why is Chayka getting the blame for this?

because he organized it

 

[hbk]

Why is Chayka getting the blame for this?

He was President and GM was he not. Where did the buck stop? The new owner who just took control in October?

 

[Jamieh]

Why is Chayka getting the blame for this?

Ultimately you are responsible for everyone under you so whether you ordered it or not its your responsibility.

 

[XX]

Why did they admit fault if this was the punishment? May as well have fought it to the end.

 

[The Feckless Puck]

Someone remind me - do we not also lose our 2021 1st if we resign Hall? And if so, does that mean we lose our 2022 1st to comply with this penalty?

 

[Jamieh]

Why did they admit fault if this was the punishment? May as well have fought it to the end.

Millions of dollars in possible fines. As a new owner during a pandemic would you rather lose draft picks or millions?

 

[Mosby]

Did they have to announce this right before we hire a GM? This could potentially affect the list of willing candidates.

 

[Neighborhood Coyote]

BTW still hilarious when idiots claim the NHL does anything to rig things in the Yote's favor. They don't make a damn thing easier for this team to actually be competitive.

 

[rt]

They have to fire Sullivan, Hofford and Goldberg at this point, right? Right?
