    Back in 2016, I made a video on this franchise that mainly talked about how bad they were (and they were pretty bad). However, there was some hope brewing for the future. John Chayka was the new GM. He was considered to be one of the pioneers of hockey analytics. They had an interesting prospect core on the way (and some were already there). How could it get any worse than it already was?
    Somehow, the Coyotes found a way, both deliberate and inadvertent. This video will hopefully be more analytical than the Coyotes have been over the past four years. I can only strive for such a goal.

      @@erics.czernecki7333 That's really the problem. Phoenix not a bad market, its just that the freaking ownership for the last 25 years have been morons. Yes lets build the arena on the wrong side of town from our fanbase. Lets make a hockey superstar our coach because everybody loves him. Ugh. The worse problem has been Bettman shoving himself in the teams business and burning the bridges in Arizona the team needs to use in order to grow and improve.

      This insult doesn’t work because
      1: Marchand DOES look like Crosby out there when he’s not taking useless penalties and
      2: Crosby is a low key dirty player, especially when it comes to high sticking. He chopped Marian Hossa’s pinky off and didn’t even get penalized for it, then speared Ryan O’Rielly the very next game. With that in mind, he was only fined $10,000 USD. What a fucking joke.

    @N_manMETA11 3 роки тому +6

    You know, I was heavily against moving this team for a long time. It felt hard to believe, with how stubborn Gary Betman is, that he would think of moving the Coyotes after all the work they've gone through and more importantly to him, the amount of MONEY they've thrown into keeping the Coyotes there for as long as they have. But with all the horrid decisions, the Mitch Miller saga, the illegal workouts, nothing about what they've done shows me they're worth keeping there, and at this point, they are a Board of Governers' approval away from basically being guarenteed a trip to Houston. As the days go by, I can't help but regret that it was the THRASHERS that moved to Winnipeg and not the Coyotes. This team was supposed to be a "contender" 3 1/2 years ago and they've done nothing but run around pissing themselves. The Thrashers, at the very least, had hope and with better ownership could have made SOMETHING out of the venture to Atlanta. The NHL rewarded Arizona for having a shitty situation and PUNISHED Atlanta for the same reason. Where the fuck is the logic? I'll tell you where it's at, it's apparently in Houston because the Coyotes STILL aren't there when they should have been by 2013. The Panthers, they may have no fucking fanbase but at the very least, their ownership and management gives a fuck, they aren't fraudulently calling themselves analytical, there is a rhyme/reason to the moves they make and in fact, alot of them have been splashes as of late, offloading a struggling Vincent Trochek and getting a few decent prospects back, robbing Pittsburgh of a capable net front presense in exchange for an atrophied center and a defenseman who's progression stalled in 2017, and having a goaltender room like Spencer Knight, Chris Driedger and Sergei Bobrovsky. When those three are at peak form they are liable to stop anything that comes their way, the Yotes and Panthers are often in the same talks but the Panthers at LEAST have a direction, they have a somewhat decent future and people in charge that even give the slightest of a shit. The Coyotes have none of that. The Coyotes are a directionless, poorly run tire-fire that's so goddamn lost they don't even have matching home//away uniforms anymore much less a stable core and movements that have paid off. As I said before, this team should have been competing back in 2018 and they've merely twiddled their thumbs saying "yeah yeah I'll get around to it" then missing the playoffs, and leave themselves scratching their heads as to what went wrong. 3 years ago? I say keep the Yotes in AZ. Now? Move this god damn team, they are nothing more than an imposing nuissance to Glendale, this franchise is such a fuckup that Phoenix, the city that literally prides itself on 3 sports teams that continually underacheive in the Cardinals, Suns and Diamond Backs, openly disowned this team and refused to let them stay. Does the "Glendale Coyotes" sound like a marketable team? Fuck no, ownership needs to sack everyone, sell, trade OEL at half salary to Pittsburgh for Doumolin and a 2nd round pick, and rebuild fucking everything from the ground up. Change every player at every position, every coach every executive, the fucking equipment manager and the goddamn team logo, colors and uniforms in an effort to make everyone forget this nightmarish trash heap of a franchise existed.

      @@argo1879 I think the Panthers get a bad rep because of all the splashes they've tried to make that didn't work. I don't like the idea of moving a team unless it's truly irreparable. The Coyotes have flopped with great opportunity after great opportunity. The Panthers have been nothing but screwed over, if they ACTUALLY played in Miami their attendance probably wouldn't be the joke it is seen as. The Panthers have successfully put together a core and are a 2nd defensive pair away from being a genuine contender. Especially if Hornqvist rebounds on a line with Barkov and Huberdeau. Florida's ownership really does give a shit, and I will never be a proponent of FORCING a front office that is trying to win into losing their team. It's why I'm happy Dundon has taken the reigns in Carolina and that Nashville found some (short lived) success this decade, cause if they hadn't, both teams would be a constant relocation talk where, in my opinion, a relo isn't the answer.
      Also, you guys are undefeated right? Please take the piss on Tampa Bay so I can laugh my ass off at their underacheivement again like 2019-prior.

Not only has Tillman not proven to be strong with assets (most of his money is in "liquid assets", aka the hypothetical moneys that destroyed the Joe Robbie estate after he died, not to mention he invested into steakhouses before the pandemic), but he's proven himself to be incompetent with hockey, such as ignoring Houston's hockey history, not investing in an ECHL franchise as a thought experiment to show there is still interest in the sport, and effectively saying nobody in the South cares about the sport around the time the Dallas Stars held the Winter Classic at the Cotton Bowl.
