The Dread Coyotes Out Clause
—
The Arizona Coyotes held a Town Hall featuring GM Don Maloney and Co-Owner, President, CEO & Alternate Governor Anthony LeBlanc yesterday, one day after publishing a $16.458M loss number for the first fiscal year under new ownership. A business operating in the red is rarely good news, in the case of a severely distressed business…

There’s a season ticket drive unofficially underway for an NHL team that doesn’t exist yet. It will be “official” in a week. This has happened at least a couple times before. Nashville Predators Jim Balsillie had been approved by the NHL Board of Governors as the new owner of the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2006. When it was…

Note to Larry Brooks: Get Bent
—
On Saturday, December 6, Larry Brooks (@NYP_Brooksie) posted an opinion piece on the NY Post website, a noted bastion of journalistic ethics and snappy headlines. In it, the hockey business Sergeant Schultz of the tri-state area encourages the NJ Devils to throw their season to be in the hunt for a draft pick. He also…
Jason Rose Sues Coyotes Honchos
—
Jason Rose is back and starring in an AZ Republic piece. He’s not in his role as the trusted advisor to Glendale mayor Weiers helping with the anti-Coyotes project, among other things. He isn’t wearing his hat as the PR representative for the fabulously nutty Amy’s Baking Company. This time Jason’s wearing his polo tournament savior…
