Where in the blue hell did they find this mouth breather? And who thought it was a good idea to make him a blogger?

Maybe he’s just as into the nose candy as Alex? 🤷‍♂️

Let’s look at this without our desert coloured glasses on.

Better skater : Domi
Better passer : Domi
Better goal scorer: Alex
Tougher : Domi
Better hands : wash
Better defensively : Domi
Not been to detox twice and still doing blow : Domi

Look I loved what Alex can do and will miss him but the Montreal strippers and nose candy got to him.. maybe out in Arizona he can get his meth on too!! 😂😂

Seriously this isn’t as bad of a trade as everyone thinks... do I think that Domi + a 3rd would of been a better fit? Yes... but maybe MB gave that pick up to not have to worry about the coke anymore?

I mean Smith pelly and beaulieu were Alex’s coke buddies and got traded soooo... meh keep those desert coloured glasses on

The biggest question here is, what’s the coke like in Arizona?

Well what’s the criteria as a good place to get drunk? Simply serving booze seems to work:

the Rangers got Raanta for Ryan Haggerty, if you want to know what a "steal" actually looks like.

James has been writing the same exact Coyotes post before every single season, he just changes the names

Such hyperbole from Tanner. Chayka is a genius for making this trade? Hardly. Previously he was a genius for drafting Domi!

Hey James, any chance Yakupov joins Galchenyuk in Arizona?

It's weird how the Coyotes fan always thinks his team wins trades especially when they follow those trades up by finishing in the bottom 5 for 3 of the last 4 seasons and in that other season they were still bottom 10.... Yet somehow they are still getting better.........

I listed every single trade he's made in this blog. Please tell me which ones were bad. He's hit multiple home runs (Hammer, Chychrun, Galchenyuk, Raanta) and made zero bad trades. Even the ones that didn't work out (Crouse) were worthwhile low-risk gables.

Name me one GM with a better set of trades since May of 2016.

Every single trade yet they still managed to finish in the bottom 5 for 3 out of the last 4 seasons and even then they were still bottom 10. Yea those trades were fantastic for Arizona........

Outside of the Stepan trade, most Chayka trades do look pretty decent.

People act like he’s been the GM for 5 years. He took over a tire fire organization with limited spending ability and has been on the job for 2 whole years. Not sure what people were realistically expecting. Not his fault they drafted Strome over Marner.

Yikes, not getting a good player with the 3rd overall sucks, but Keller panned out well so I guess it's a wash.

Before you get too excited about Chucky; apparently he was / is a fan of the Devils dandruff... so you might be shipping out one douche and getting another.

Chucky is a better player for sure- but I think if one player stands to be better in his new environment it's Domi.
If Chucky can't seem to look interested at the Bell Center, he might not be too fired up by the fans in a secondary market (and secondary is being generous).

MB has made a litany of bad trades, and this could very well another one, but not too sure Arizona picked up a real game changer either.

Time will tell...

talk to Frenchie about the Stromes, they are just a very over rated hockey family name with inflated value bc that.

At this rate of improvement pretty soon they'll be up to 27th or 26th in the league!!!!

If Chayka was so smart how come he didn't pick up Cody Franson from waivers? That stud #1 D that all teams passed on? You know, all those really stupid NHL GMs.

You only mentioned Wedgewood for Kuemper when it was actually Wedgewood and Reider for Kuemper. I know it wasn’t a highlighted trade but you still forgot to mention the actual player that made that trade happen.
