the fact he resigned in Arizona tells me he is a straight up loser. Doesn't want the pressure of trying to win. When his career is over no one will now who the hell he is anyway. Good dman but completely overrated by Jimmy.

Best in "franchise" history, or best in Coyotes' history?

I'd agree with best in Coyotes history, but would argue that Selanne and Hawerchuk were better if we're talking "franchise."

Jovo Cop would be up there in Coyote history but if it's Arizona Coyote history
then it would be OEL for sure.

The NHL needs to formally give the records and history of the Jets back to the Jets.

Who cares? - I can't remember if this is the case, but are Bobby Hull and Dale Hawerchuk's numbers retired by the Coyotes?

I remember there was some kind of debate about Hawerchuk a few years ago

Those banners should be hanging in Winnipeg, If the NFL can do it with the Browns, the NHL can do it with the Jets

I understand it can get muddy when the conversation becomes should North Star players be honoured by the Wild, Rockies players (are there any) be honoured by the Avalanche, etc... This just seems different given the Jets are in fact the Jets

If Quebec ever got another team and named it the Nordiques, then The Stastnys and whoever else should have their banners in that arena as well.

I'm not going to disagree with you on history (retired numbers and such), but the records will stay with the franchise.

But yes, if we're counting only what players have accomplished as an Arizona Coyote, it's OEL by a pretty wide margin.
