Comments on: Coyotes GM Don Maloney on Kyle Turris’ contract demands: “It’s illogical” http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/2011/09/16/coyotes-gm-don-maloney-on-kyle-turris-contract-demands-its-illogical/ ProHockeyTalk on NBCSports.com Wed, 22 May 2013 09:23:45 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: SharkCircle http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/2011/09/16/coyotes-gm-don-maloney-on-kyle-turris-contract-demands-its-illogical/comment-page-1/#comment-16506 Mon, 19 Sep 2011 19:48:47 +0000 http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=47676#comment-16506 He wants out. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Langkow trade really discouraged him. Turris is young and improving, and he has skill, but they will barely play him. But then Maloney goes and trades for an aging center in Langkow, making tons of money, who hasn’t played in over a year, and goes on and on about what a no-brainer trade it was, how great a player he is. Turris probably feels like hey, I’m better than him, and healthier. You’re not just willing to pay him 4.5M per year, you’re excited about it, so why shouldn’t I get that much? Not the mention the way you’re going on and on about him, I know you think he’s better than me, and you’re going to play him instead of me. And Turris probably feels in reality he’s better than Langkow.

Maloney probably should have signed Turris before trading for Langkow. Not like it couldn’t wait until training camp to do the trade. No draft picks were involved.
