Maloney said this move was purely about behavioral issues and not cost-saving move. Ribeiro has been seeking help this summer, Maloney said.

Maloney: "Mike had some real behavioral issues we felt we could not tolerate going forward."

Maloney said this decision doesn't necessarily make #Coyotes better team next season but better organization in long run.

#Coyotes weren't naive when they acquired Ribeiro last summer, but Maloney thought they could manage. Called it "mistake" now.

Both deals so far today I get more of an "EH" feeling. Nothing that makes my jaw drop. Makes me feel like we might be able to make a move without moving a ton or huge assets

Ducks never really broke the bank for Kesler, did they? They got what they wanted and a couple minor throw ins.

Wow. Eagles didn't even say stuff like that about Desean. I can't imagine what Ribeiro did.

Blew their load already with AMac... otherwise the chance to get a better player locked into a better contract for the same trade price would have been there.

It's amazing isn't it

Flyers paying overinflated market price since 1967

Rumor Toronto offered jvr plus for 1st overall
It's only fitting jvr gets you a number 1 defender and Shea Weber wannabe . We got Luke Schenn though. It's all good

Absolutely!! This is who I have hoped they would go after, and would probably have to make cap room but a change scenery is all he may need.

Claude Giroux, Wayne Simmonds, Luke Schenn, Brayden Schenn, Sean Couturier, Matt Read, Jake Voracek and Steve Mason. I want to add to this core, not divide. The only way I would trade one of these names is if we're getting a guaranteed stud and specialist in return. What I'm hoping for is a 21 to 26 year old work in progress player who still has potential, some familiarity with some of our guys. It's asking for a lot on my part but look at these names we have. It's happened many times before.

Yeah, it's too bad it is believed the Leafs want one of the young centers because they're not convinced Kadri is a #1 centerman.
