The Philly and Detroit blackout jerseys were a total flop, so 3rd time’s the charm, I guess?  | |

I think they look like an ECHL jersey. Terrible. Reminds me of the Seahawks jerseys which have a better green.

All I can think about is how much shit a guy would take wearing a smoked out visor like he's got on. ASHL comments would be vicious if a guy ever showed up with a lid like that.  | |

Lol, Arizona...
-loses draft picks for violating rules
-goes all in to get Taylor Hall, can't re-sign Taylor Hall
-new GM
-tries to trade their Captain, can't get deal done
-first draft pick in 2020 is 4th round and selects problematic player that no one else wants
-story makes it to media, Arizona comes out defending draft pick
-story blows up, PR backlash, Arizona renounces draft pick  | |

"There were gasps in other NHL war-rooms when Coyotes picked Miller"
I haven't been following the draft, but I read the letter written by his victim's mom, and I couldn't believe anyone would go anywhere close to that piece of shit scumbag in this day and age. Glad they came to their senses, that guy does not deserve any success whatsoever. He had his chance to try to make it better, but couldn't even apologize. Fuck him and his shitty family.

The kid is a racist, and bullied a young black kid with mental development issues.
Just gives more credence to the reports of rampant racism in the NHL, good ol' boys keep good ol' boyin'.

I would have preferred if Arizona had worked with him to legitimately make amends with the kid he bullied, go to counselling and sensitivity training, enrol him in community outreach programs, etc. I don’t think teenagers are beyond redemption.
That said, it’s a business and they have every right to drop him if they don’t want to be associated with him.

All they really wanted was an apology and he couldn't even muster that up.
It takes a real special POS to bully a disabled kid.

It's ridiculous reading the responses on twitter to the post by the Coyotes renouncing the pick:

It takes a real special POS to bully a disabled kid. | I did and that’s why I said legitimately make amends as he didn’t make any real attempt to in the past. The judge also didn’t have nice things to say about him either.
But, again, he was and still is a teenager. He’s learning a life lesson now the hard way and I don’t know that destroying an 18-year-old’s life is the answer even if he did some really shitty stuff. Quote:

I’m just saying that ruining the kid’s life isn’t the only or best way to address this situation.

Not getting a shot in the NHL is far from "ruining a kids life."
It was a privilege and opportunity that he squandered. Now he just has to live a normal life like the rest of us. He is a caucasian male American in a family that has been able to support him in playing hockey, he'll be fine.

actions have consequences. i hope this serves as a lesson to all kids (and parents).
you know what's naive? thinking that giving the guy an opportunity to play in the NHL will change who he is and make him a better person. what makes you think he hasn't already gotten a second chance to make things and himself better? or that he wont get chances in the future? where's the victim's second chance to do well in life?
yea, let's show all the kids that as long as you say the right things and check off all the boxes on the checklist, you can get away with anything and even spin it into a redemption story, right?
the situation sucks for everyone, but the kid needs to own up, take responsibility for his actions, and deal with the consequences.

The more I think about this the more I think Coyotes staff totally just missed this and didn't do their homework. How's it that every single team did their due diligence and wanted no part of him yet, Coyotes picked him anyway. This isn't even a 1st/2nd rounder where the talent level would be too good to ignore, 4th Round!

My guess is the Cotes probably thought they would get a third rounder in the fourth round and use him as a fixer up er until the shit hit the fans and they made the second mistake of bailing out on him.
