The Coyotes don't need to worry about depth yet, but I'd be pretty pissed if Maloney signed scrap pile guys that then went on to block the path to the NHL for younger players. We all know the best man doesn't play when it comes to this organization. The guys that Tippett likes the most play. Not the same thing.
I am not talking about GMDM going dumpster diving for reclamation projects in the twilight of their career or over-the-hill AHLers.
I am comparing players who are 23 and 24 years respectively. Age is not a determining factor in this case. Neither is the fact whether one has played in the 'A" and the other in Europe. What matters is: what are they bringing to the team right now? The better man stays and the other goes to the farm.
