Coyotes Roundup 9/19-9/26

[206fragilebones]

Actual news is slow. Here are the relevant things this week:

miscellaneous team notes

• We lost one of our best reporters who moved on to bigger and better things in San Diego. She speaks highly of her replacement, so we all hope she fills Lisa's shoes adequately as a person and a journalist.
• Rant Sports ranked Olli in their top 100 NHL players
• A patronizing video reflection on why Phoenix will finish 10th in the West if we ever have a season

prospect roundup:

• Hockey Futures has thoughts about our best baby Coyotes
• A rundown of where all our junior baby Coyotes are playing this year
• Five for Howling likes Gormley the best

Locked Out Players

• Rusty Klesla signed back home with a Czech team
• Looks like Boeds will play for the Malmö Redhawks after all...if the lockout goes too long.
• Sarah McLellan catches up with the guys at practice to get their thoughts on lockout plans... and their reflections on the lockout

Portland Pirates

• The Pirates season preview on one of Portland's local news stations
• Nash and Treliving talk about the Pirates’ upcoming season

Glendale

• On the shitty location of Jobing.com for the Coyotes
• Mike Sunnucks, making shit up as he goes (i.e., yet another completely unsubstantiated rumor)
• And tangentially related to the team, Glendale's proposed budget plans

And here are all the fun things from this week in Coyotes Land:

• Shane Doan is a really awesome human being and also a huge dork
• A call for loyalty from one of the team’s most devoted fans
• Our mascot Howler shows some support for local adoptions
• Ed is kind of tired of being shat on
• Someone on reddit calls it in one
• Last, but far from least, we really hate the Kings
