What happened to Uncle Lou???
- aightwebang17


Kicked upstairs to be President.

He's already denied being forced out by ownership, which likely means he's been forced out by ownership.

Arizona isn't helping the salary cap

Rick Westhead @rwesthead · 2h 2 hours ago

After Phoenix Coyotes claimed $34.8M loss last season, city of Glendale expects audit (being done by Tony Tavares) complete in few weeks.

What loss is this referring to? Is this insurance related?

Oh holy poop are you kidding? lol That's ridiculous... I thought you meant they had like a large insurance claim/loss or something like that. Only in Arizona does a hockey team lose over 30 million dollars in a season

Uncle Lou will fire fire Shero the morning of trade deadline and simply take over.

@travisyost: Let's see if Ray Shero can get two of the three best players in the world. If he can, look out, second round of playoffs.

That team needs to be moved, post haste, but they are so pot committed to Phoenix at this point, it's comical.

Yeah, I don't understand this hire.

Maybe Josh Harris is a secret Flyers plant and is looking to destroy the Devils from within.

If so, I approve.

They had those same 2 of the best players in the world this year without Shero. How'd they do? Got sent home by a team with a GM who eats tapioca and craps his diaper...

I don't hold Rutherford in high regard either. He also lost Letang, Maata and Ehrhoff. No team gets far in the playoffs when they lose three of their top 4 defenseman

the NHL insisting that team stays while others have moved in the recent past just frustrates me to no end

They lost the series because they couldn't score. That falls on Crosby and Malkin. They lost four games 2-1. Their defense, and goaltending in the series was plenty good enough to win.

His drafts weren't very good. It's one of the reasons the Pens were constantly trading picks and prospects for wingers for Crosby and Malkin

HEY!!! I like tapioca!

You know as long as it's real and not vanilla pudding with tapioca in it like you get at the store. That's just wrong.

They played the entire game in their own end. They were constantly on the Pk because they were constantly playing defense.

Defenseman play a large role in scoring like forwards play a large role in goals against

So why did the Rags score 2 goals a game? Don't say MAF stood on his head, everyone ridicules him for being a sieve in the playoffs.

Exactly. I mentioned on twitter that he's the Anti-Lou. Definitely a different direction for this franchise.

Did you write that about the Pens this year or the Flyers against the Rags last year in the playoffs?
