[Larry Brooks] Je ne fais pas de va-et-vient ici, mais je n’ai pas signalé que l’AP avait déposé des plaintes ou des griefs auprès de la ligue, seulement que des joueurs avaient déposé des plaintes auprès de l’AP et que la question serait discutée lors de la prochaine réunion. Merci.
I’m not engaging in a back and forth here but I did not report that the PA had filed complaints or grievances with the league, only that players had lodged complaints with the PA and that the issue would be discussed at upcoming meeting. Thanks. https://t.co/RTDctISmJC

Directly from his original article: « Slap Shots has also learned that Coyotes players filed multiple complaints with the PA during the season about sub-standard travel, lodging and logistical issues that were in violation of the collective bargaining agreement. »
Per Craig Morgan today: « Of note: I’ve heard from the vast majority of agents who represent Coyotes on the regular roster this past season. None were aware, via their clients, of any infractions that rose to the level of CBA violation. The PA had reps in AZ frequently this year to monitor the situation. »
and
« As others have noted, complaints by teams to the NHLPA are not uncommon. Were there more with Arizona this season? Probably, given their unique situation, playing at Mullett Arena, training at an off-site facility near the Ice Den & playing 20 of their 1st 24 games on the road. »
According to the NHL, any and all issues have been resolved, and none were even remotely close to violating the CBA.

Ie, another clown journalist looking for clicks at the expense of the Coyotes.
It’s so annoying. It’s like they could just report the facts and we already look pretty bad, but people continually stretch the facts to make it look worse.
He just wants to take heat off the Rangers for when they hire Quenneville. Brooks is a fucking hack.
