Pretty good

He played at the USNTDP when Granato was there, it’s gotta happen

Here is his three year RAPM Chart

I do find it interesting that Corey Pronman twice mocked Danill But to the Sabres at 13 OA, especially since Pronman was the first to link Jack Quinn to Buffalo in 2020.

Right age, right hand, right size with playoff experience, Metrics have slipped the past two seasons Evolving Hockey has Him six years 6.3 million AAV extension. Romanov got 13th OA last year, but he was 22 and a RFA They probably ask for 2024 1st to start

Per Pierre LeBrun the Sabres have interest in Brett Pesce

This was mentioned on 32 Thoughts, it would need to be another family member owning the team, but San Diego was as an expansion location. They were lukewarm on Houston, as the Rockets Owner did not seem overly interested. Of course Atlanta was a front runner

Thoughts?

Hell yes on Tanev, I would even give him a two year extension

Yep

It’s not suddenly holding a gun to the head of Alex Meruelo. He has had plenty of time to get a plan in place for a new arena. This is the same owner who did not pay rent or taxes to the City Of Glendale, which lead to the the City deciding not to renew the Coyotes Lease as the City stating its decision was due to “increased focus on larger, more impactful events and uses of the city-owner arena.” Per the Desert Diamond Arena Calendar there were 23 events between October and April, with one event the entire month of January and two in February. It does not look good when an arena owner willingly gives up 41 nights of arena use, as the tenant has been difficult to deal with. There is also pressure from the other owners and intense pressure from the NHLPA to resolve this. The Coyotes Players filed multiple grievances with the NHLPA about violations of the CBA. Meruelo and the Coyotes acted as if winning the Tempe Vote was a forgone conclusion. NHLPA President Marty Walsh, who knows a thing or two about local elections, met with Coyotes Leadership, looked at the Yotes Campaign and immediately realized it was doomed to fail. They have had multiple chances to get the franchise on stable footing and stumbled each time, if they don’t settle things soon the NHL will be forces move in a different direction. He should get his original purchase price back at least. This of course the NHL’s Ultimate Dream, which is why the current ownership group has gotten more time The one of the original owners of Coyotes sold his share to Ellsman when Ellsman insisted on the new arena being built in Glendale, Moyes wanted to build it on the Eastern Side of Phoenix where most of the population is. Ironically, Friedman and Marek were talking about expansion cities this afternoon Atlanta of course was mentioned as was a possible return to Phoenix with an ownership group with a stable arena plan. Friedman mentioned that the thought is the market is too big for the league not to be there.

This is cool

Final purchase price was 950 million for 90%of the team. It will take until the fall to close however

I think he is a minority owner in Montreal.

Eichel even mentioned the professionalism KA displayed throughout the whole process in His interview with Friedman on the day he was traded

As Sabel mentioned, the NHL would have had to sign off on the plan for the Coyotes to play at Arizona State while the team searches for a new arena. Part of that agreement could contain a forced buyout option that the NHL can invoke if the Coyotes do not have a confirmed deal in place for a new arena by a certain date.
