Quoting: Birtle34
Arizona survived 25 years, they aren’t going anywhere, only way Mathew comes will be in a similar approach to tavares going home from the island. When his contract is up, the leafs will be ready for a retool and the coyotes will be primed for a buy and a new building. The story pretty much writes itself..
Disagree
Players are annoyed that teams like ARZ are costing them money as they havent covered their operations cost since 2003
CBA will put pressure on the league in a big way as players already are saying they like every other Pro Athlete want all their money on time
No more of this like X% to help the league out
This trade will never happen
ARZ surviving longterm isnt happening
Bettman will eventually have to give up or his replacement will move on from them
This isnt NJD where they helped them and then they were fine
ARZ hasnt had a competent GM yet as its where people go to learn and make their mistakes before leaving
Mr Armstrong may or may not succeed but 1 thing is for Certain he wont stay in ARZ longterm as no one does
