Sometimes stating obvious and true facts helps to keep the sanity around here while we slowly creep toward madness.

Loui isn't going to do a f***ing thing all year. We will be in the last game of the year, tied with Chicago at 38 points.

Machine Gun Loui is going to record a hat trick the last game of the year to secure the Coyotes 40 points and finishing 31st. They'll go onto lose the lottery twice and pick 4th.

I wish you all the best. Arizona has long been my #2 dating back to my younger days loving the Peyote coyote. Just got a Bulin Wall jersey. And I wish Loui the best, seems like a great guy but he just has nothing left. It’ll be f*** John Scott and Brooks Orpik forever from me. He only had one good season after his series of concussions (UFA year with Krejci) and largely hasn’t been the same since

I wish someone would pay me 6 million dollars a year to do a bad job.

David Moss 2.0?

 

[RemoAZ]

He's already retired. Just wants to get paid too.

I don’t understand why we don’t send him to Tucson. There’s a decent shot he refuses to report and we can just cancel his contract. He’d probably rather go sign a contract in Sweden and make up a good 50% of whatever he leaves on the table here. Beats riding the bus in the West division of the AHL. Brutal for a guy like him.

 

[TheLegend]

Well he does.

And to think I no longer needed a Magic 8-ball.

Hmmmmmmm.

It's because he's represented by super agent JP Barry.

That's all we talked about when he was in Vancouver, send him to the minors etc. But it's a politics thing.

Ultimately it doesn’t matter. We wanted to get 32nd overall and we’re gonna get 32nd overall. And we’re free of OEL’s contract, so alls well that ends well.

They haven't paper waived any of the vets yet because they seem to all be making an honest go of things. On and off the ice. And maybe that's more important in a year where wins will be scarce.

I would have preemptively told them I'd be doing it every 30 days for maximum flexibility and to not worry about it. But I can see why BA and the coaches have so far avoided that indignity.

His dedication to keeping a fit body is something. Now he's just got to make it useful.

He's a Jaguar with a broken steering column.

You're probably right, but in that scenario this is what I expect demand from Eriksson lol

 

[0point1]

^After that he should have been on this team years ago. Very Coyotes thing to do.

 

[DingDongCharlie]

Thanks for catching up.

You want Turris back? I mean not for Eriksson just you want to try him out and see if he sucks or not?

I personally have no interest in a player who obviously doesn't want to play for us.

 

[Schemp]

I'm waiting for a couple of players to retire and head to Europe.

Hopefully, Jaskin is one of them.

Eriksson is the prototypical “tank” player. An over the hill veteran on a one year deal who has 0% chance of returning, who is fulfilling his purpose of taking up a roster spot while his eventual replacement (Jenik) gestates in Tucson. He isn’t good, but he wasn’t supposed to be. Even if he was playing well, he makes too much to be deadline trade bait.

In 3 years we will look back and be like “hey remember when Loui Eriksson was a coyote that one time and was awful lol”. He’s our new Martin Erat

 

[Edenjung]

Well he does.

New profile pic?

kinda liked the old one more.
But still nice.

And yeah Loui sucks.
I had a video prepared if he ever scores a game winning goal. Or a goal in general but nope not gonna happen.

 

[Prarievarg]

It's strange how he looked good in the preseason games then fell off as soon as the regular season started. Kind of thought he'd go on and have a decent season for us. I do think he has some ability left, and it doesn't seem like lack of effort either
