  1. you guys will love Spronger, though you may find yourself cussing when he makes a massive defensive mistake that evens out the goal he scored

  2. $975 k for 18 goals, that's pretty darn good. The canes could use 18 goals right about now. They could always work on his defense.

  3. I am so confused on how sprong with those stats gets less than 2.5 mil? I have no background with him, seen him play a few times but nothing more. Was this his only scoring season? Is he bad defensively?

  4. Picked up a Coyotes jersey, Coyotes tumbler and Coyotes throw blanket today at one of the Goodwill’s in Phoenix. $60 for the jersey, $14.50 for the tumbler and $9.50 for the blanket.

  5. I still call it "twitter" except I sub in the X instead of the T, and pronounce the X like an SH, so "XITTER," or "SHITTER"

  6. Shannon, a competitive line up in the early season makes trading for the d an easier task. This will push performance on the forward side- if there is not a great fit they have flexibility to move

  7. I would like a Roenick, Tkachuk, and Jovanovski Arizona/Phooenix jersey, thanks. There's probably a few others, but those were my favorite 3 players for the team.

  8. before I forgot my stupid thought of the day. Thinking about players on former teams. Jagr wasn't on the coyotes, like one of 3 teams he didn't play for. It would great though or really stupid but for fun kicks and giggles, that Jagr signs one day contract for each team he didn't play for, dress for the game, play at least one shift, and then go do another 1 day contract with the rest of the league so there's a Jagr jersey for everyone's favorite team. Talk about selling merchandise. The traveling Jagrs group would grow with every game he played.

  9. Smart signing for the Canucks. If it doesn't work out the cost is pretty minimal and the potential is there for 20 goals.

  10. I thought it was a good move signing Sprong; two pretty good years in a row. I like having right shots on the RW. So does this mean Utah can use the moniker Coyotes without it being in copyright violation? I'd rather hear Utah Coyotes instead of the Hockey Club lol.

  11. Sprong is basically a bargain bin kuzmenko. He’ll end up the same way as kuz, where he’ll play the top unit powerplay but because he’s a defensive liability, he can’t do much else for u and will be stapled to the 4th line or as a scratch. At least he doesn’t cost us $5.5mil per season. Lol

  12. Fun video idea: Deepest playoff run for all of the non Stanley Cup winning teams. Example: NSH 2017 SCF, MIN 2003 WCF.

  13. The Caps never should have let Sprong go. He'll never be an elite scorer, but he plays way above his stat line because he covers a ton of ice.

  14. sprong is such a bargain 40 points should get you at least 2 or 3 millions in this market

  15. 975k for a player that gets over half a point per game? What kind of dirt does the canucks have on that guy?

  16. Seems like it's a "you're not getting a milliion, you're getting a coach" type of deal for Sprong.

  17. Love Veleno, he’s got the hustle – different utilisation but in that regard reminds me of Luke Glendening, blue collar hockey!

  18. thank god for the hockey guy !! if it wasn't for this white board I wouldn't know what was going on in hockey lol

  19. That’s a good cap hit for Sprong.

    Pickings are pretty slim for UFAs. A bunch of good veterans to be had to fill out lineups though…

    Forwards: Van Riemsdyk, Pacioretty, T Johnson
    Défense: Shattenkirk, J Schultz
    Goalie: Martin Jones

    I’m guessing all could be had for less than 1.5m…

  20. Why does sprong get passed around like a community bicycle? I thought he did well on the kraken. Instead of keeping him, they let him go and brought Yamamoto?? 🤦

  21. I wish i was still in arizona 😭. The thought of all that free coyotes gear sitting in a goodwill saddens me. I wish i can go back and take em all.

  22. They had a Gretzky trade documentary on TV in my bumfuck 3rd country and look at me now
