  1. I'm 25 and I don't care who you are, you shouldn't be GM at 26. You can't have enough work experience at that age. You can be brilliant and all, but you should be at charge.

  2. Chayka probably knows Hall is walking and doesn't want to take the heat for giving up all the assets he did to obtain him. Ontop of that, Arizona now needs to restart the rebuild.

  3. The condition on the second pick in the Hall trade were actually if they win a round in the playoffs and re-sign him it’s a 1st and a 2nd if they do either of the two.

  4. Chayka did an okay job but nothing was done to be a contender and this is the problem with him. Also, he was in Arizona so…… buying a lot of shitty contract will never make you a contender.. just my two cents

  5. Not really sure why you left this bit out: the 2016 2nd Detroit got in the Datsyuk trade became Filip Hronek. Changes the dynamic of the trade slightly.

  6. Islander fans love to bash on Garth Snow. Can you do something like this and see how bad he really was?

  7. Hall trade wasn’t bad value, it did not fill the biggest need. If you don’t win the face off, then your chasing the puck. If your chasing the puck you probably don’t score goals.

  8. Advance stats vs character. Their has to be a mix. Coyotes play too soft. Great at drafting not so with building a team.

  9. they have other great prospects who weren't 1st round picks. Jan Jenik looks like a steal. also ivan prosvetov is a highly touted goalie prospect.

  10. Don't mind the Yotes moving on from Chayka just think the timing of this sucks with playoffs about to start.

  11. Keller started to turn things around before the pause. He looked like he was starting to put things together, finally. I guess we'll see in the post-season if it continues.

    Stepan is a conundrum. In an ideal world, he would be a third-line center. He has great defensive instincts, and he's just a smart player. But he's being asked to fill a top-two center roll simply because they don't have anyone who can do that yet. Hayton has loads of potential, but I think he's a #2 center, realistically. They need a top-line center, but they have never really been in a position to draft one.

  12. The video loaded in at 144p and I couldn't read the board so I switched to 1080p… nothing changed except now shannon is less fuzzy

  13. I think he is done decent enough job mostly good trades but I don't think it gm fault that they can't score goals.

  14. I liked the yotes cuz of Chayka. He was the poor mans Dubas. Maybe the Habs will hire him and fire the fidiot Bergevin.

  15. Hes done so much positive for this team he is the reason we got this far he drafted kids that acutally wanted to play for us and made some big trades to try and make a run of we loss him im going to be pissed

  16. That would be a somewhat weird trading places between Chayka and Futa. You know Blake will not last long in 3 years with the Kings if the Kings don't make the next year's playoffs and/or make seminal round in WCF in 2 -3 years. Kings at this moment doesn't have Asst GM.

  17. Funny how a lot of his moves seem I’ll advised when you take a look at evolving hockey metrics

  18. Dont think u can say hes a bad GM but you cant say hes outstanding Coyotes were awful when he joined I think hes done a solid job I think theres plenty of worse GMs in the NHL

  19. The money some of these crap players are being payed. Screws teams that need to afford their players, when they say "that guy got that for 10 goals? Then I want more". Screws teams that are building, like the nucks.

  20. Do they even have a single contract which could be seen as good production for the money ? Or does it sound worse than it is ?

  21. Chayka is a lesson to any team why you shouldn't hire specialist GM who is just good at the "numbers" and doesn't have a firm grasp on the rest of the game.

  22. He has made some very bad moves, but overall the team is in better shape than before he was hired. He made some gutsy moves to acquire Kessel and Hall in order to address the goal scoring problems, it is not his fault if they underperformed. I also think he drafted decent even though they have not a Hughes or a Pettersson in their system. They have a good prospect pool with Hayton, Soderstrom, Maccelli, Janik, Hoefenmayer, etc. Without being a playoff team, they are going in the right direction

  23. Chuychrun at 16th overall was a joke. 6 months before the draft a lot of people had him pegged top 5 and he lost favor with the scouts because they doubted his compete level.

  24. No wi responded to a comment below and I may sound redundant so excuse Me If I am at this point.Now I grew Up in St Louis so Im vested in the blues I love My Pens B4 The Coyotes came into being. I Have Lived In Az since the Coyotes first year. So i see Chayka leaving as a Meh to be honest. paid Waayyy too much for maybes as You have showed us. He had a couple good trades but on the whole He really hasnt made the team really any better. Hayton , Keller and Schmaltz are maybes to be honest. He saved a bunch of Money when We needed it but after that its a big ? mark. This team still misses huge pieces like a #1 Center or A One two puch that good teams have. No skilled Passers so the Kessel trade was a bust unless they trade and get someone Who can dish the puck. Our Goalies are solid and Our D can Be great but will it be as effective without Hammer? I think this team still has a ways to go and needs some skilled Veterans to compliment the Kids. they should keep Soderberg one more season as He is doing well here and given another year He maybe able to help Hayton be a better Center. So Chayka Leaving probably for the best Meruello can now take and tool the team as He sees it.
