1. They don't have 15million over 8 years to pay him.

2. Toronto would match .

3. It's a piss poor idea to rely on one guy to turn a franchise around.

1. They do.

2. Toronto might not be able to. Unless they want to lose a lot of guys next year.

3. It's an ever worse idea to rely on NO ONE to turn the franchise around which is what they are doing already. So they can go no where but up with Matthews.

1. They literally don't have a penny. They lost 50million last year. Good luck committing 100 million to on player. Bad idea.

2. Toronto would just move out Nylander or kadri. Boom. Extra money .

3. It's recommend to build through a unit, a nucleus of good players approximately the same age, who grow together. One guy is a recipe for disaster.

1. They don't have money cause fans don't goto games. Fans don't goto games cause there's no reason to watch. Matthews is a reason to go.

2. Possibly. Which is why Arizona needs to overpay to get it done.$16 M would still be worth it to save their entire franchise.

3. And they just traded away Strome and Domi. They need a franchise center piece to build around. That guy is Matthews.

1. Fans don't go to games because the team sucks. Matthews doesn't make them not suck, especially considering the next 4 picks are gone .

2. Toronto would match

3. They traded strome because they suck at developing and they has to get at least some value back on a asset that was madly losing value.
Domi was a good trade.
Should learn to develop your own team as opposed to relying on one guy to turn your team around

1. Yes they do. For every sports franchise in history. Do you not remember Chicago and Pittsburgh before they got good? Ghost towns.

2. You don't know this 100%. And even if they do, no harm no foul for Arizona. It's a zero risk move.

3. My theory on both Strome and Domi is they purposefully sucked in Arizona in hopes of getting traded. The franchise has nothing good going for it. That's why it's so important to lock up a superstar like Matthews to build around. It'd be stupid for them not to atleast try.

Ouch.

Antti Raanta is out indefinitely for the Arizona Coyotes and likely will miss the rest of the season, general manager John Chayka said Sunday.

The goalie has missed the past five games with a lower-body injury. He had a procedure Saturday that revealed more extensive damage than was anticipated.

"The good news is that it was a great repair and his long-term health is in great standing," Chayka told the Coyotes website. "The recovery will be a little longer than we had hoped or expected, but at the same time, again, he has the ability to preserve his long-term health. That's the main thing, and we've been able to do that."

Arizona is 13-13-2 and entered Sunday five points behind the Vegas Golden Knights for the second wild card into the Stanley Cup Playoffs from the Western Conference.
