Wild trade Gaborik and Koivu The Florida Panthers have acquired star winger Marian Gaborik. In return, the Minnesota Wild recieve winger Michael Frolik and the 57th overall pick in 2011. Gaborik led the Wild with 34 goals and 40 assists last year but will be expected to explode with the great offensive players in Florida. The 29-years-old Slovak has two years left on a 7.4M$ p/y deal. Frolik scored 41 goals and 37 assists last season with the strong Panthers; the 23-years-old Czech has two years left on a 1.4M$ p/y deal. The Wild also traded forward Mikko Koivu to the Detroit Red Wings for defenseman Brad Stuart and a 2nd round pick in 2012. Koivu had a tough season this year with only 40 games played due to a partially torn ACL that took him out for three month. He scored 24 points. Stuart has been one of the most steady defenseman in both zones in the Western Conference for the last three years; scoring an average of 33 points per season with the Red Wings. Stuart is 31-years-old and has one year left on his contract while Koivu is 28-years-old and has two years left on his contract.

Coyotes draft review Round 1 - 3rd overall - C/RW André Lindblad - L - 6'1/174 - Moose Jaw Warriors (WHL) - 3/7/1993 - Västervik, Sweden 2010-11 - Moose Jaw (WHL) - 72GP - 42G - 69A - 111PTS - Ranked 3rd overall by ISS André Lindblad made an impact in Moose Jaw after being the first selection in the CHL Import Draft. The swedish center led a poor team to the post-season by scoring 111 points, more than twice the amount of the second scorer on the team Justin Maylan who ended with 52 points. Lindblad played more than 25 minutes a game and was named captain midway through the year as he showed why he is such a highly coveted prospect. He is a very strong two-way player who plays with amazing consistency. He is a good skater and a masterful player with the puck; he is wonderful at distributing the puck. He has very good hands and excellent positionning both in the offensive and defensive zone. Although his style is best suited for center, he is somewhat deficient on faceoffs which can be a liability at times. His average shot selection will also prevent him from ever being a great scorer at the NHL level. Round 1 - 19th overall - RD Ivan Ruzicka - L - 5'7/187 - HC Sparta Praha (CZE) - 6/23/1993 - Plzen, Czech Republic 2010-11 - Sparta Praha Jrs (CZE) - 33GP - 25G - 44A - 69PTS - Ranked 46th overall by ISS Some people will claim that Ruzicka was a reach at the point the Coyotes took him, but by the words head scout Jerry Bourne were describing him, he could as well be a steal. A diminutive defenseman in size, Ruzicka is still a very strong player who is already built like a tank. Bourne described him as the best skater in the draft, with only danish winger Kasper Krog falling in the same category. He is an offensive minded defenseman who is able to control the play and who can sometimes take the role of fourth attacker on the ice. He is a superb passer, posses great hands and has a varied selection of shots. For someone his size, Ruzicka is also surprisingly willing to take the body defensively and shows excellent positionning ability. Compared to "Dan Boyle but with the skating of Scott Niedermayer", Ruzicka is incredibly consistent and has a great attitude although he is said to barely ever speak a word. He has already made it public that he will come over to play with the Ottawa 67's who selected him 116th overall in the 2010 CHL Import Draft. All in all, it's the size of Ruzicka that scared teams away, and for good reasons: there are currently no such small defenders who enjoy success in the NHL. Round 2 - 33rd overall - LD/RD Nikolai Stasenko - L - 6'0/156 - Lokomotiv Yaroslavl (RSL) - 2/25/1993 - Chist, Belarus 2010-11 - Dynamo Moscow Jrs (RUSJR) - 12GP - 4G - 7A - 11PTS - Ranked 30th overall by ISS Nikolai Stasenko is a stay-at-home belarussian defenseman who will play for Lokomotiv of the Russian Superleague for the next two seasons. He is said to be a good skater who plays very hard and who plays an aggressive brand of defensive hockey. He reads the game well and likes to get under his opponents' skin. He will take hits and deliver them with consistency. He is also a smart player who is very good at passing the puck out of the defensive zone. Stasenko is rather on the thin side and will need to bulk up and get stronger. With a very good contract in Russia, it's also questionnable wether he will be interested in coming over to play in the AHL. Round 3 - 63rd overall - RD Sergej Kurenkov - L - 6'5/222 - Avangard Omsk (RSL) - 1/18/1993 - Yaroslavl, Russia 2010-11 - Avangard Jrs (RUSJR) - 21GP - 8G - 16A - 24PTS - Ranked 40th overall by ISS Sergej Kurenkov is one of the intriguing prospects of the 2011 draft class. Although ranked high by all scouting agencies, none of them were very fond of him as a player. Kurenkov is a big, strong and mean defenseman and he is a solid skater. He is also a hard worker and a good teammate. But there are some big cons to counteract what so far looks like a great prospect: He has very average hockey sense, is often taken out of position and doesn't use his long reach enough. He is also average offensively and has a hard time making a good first pass out of the defensive zone. On the verge of ending his contract with Avangard, Kurenkov will explore his options but coming to North America, be it for the Rampage or for an eventual CHL team that could draft him in the import draft, is not out of question. Round 5 - 129th overall - LD Jacob Patrick - R - 5'9/205 - Marquette Rangers (NAHL) - 4/25/1993 - Estero, Florida 2010-11 - Marquette (NAHL) - 60GP - 17G - 26A - 43PTS - Ranked 29th overall by ISS - Commited to Providence (2011) Jacob Patrick suffered one of the greatest falls on NHL Draft day. Ranked 29th overall by ISS and in the top 50 of all but one major scouting agencies, none expected Patrick to fall all the way to the fifth round. The Florida native is a two-way defender who does everything well, but nothing exceptionally well. He is a good skater, is rather strong for his small size and is solid and confident with the puck. His combination of size and lack of top end talent might be what ultimately cost him a high selection. Round 6 - 153rd overall - LW Jakub Maxa - L - 5'11/176 - HC Litvinov (CZE) - 4/23/1989 - Litvinov, Czech Republic 2010-11 - Litvinov (CZE) - 49GP - 9G - 10A - 19PTS - Unranked overager Not much is known on the 22-years-old Czech. He is said to be a good skater, although lacking speed, and a hard working winger. Head scout Jerry Bourne has said that he is very good technically and plays well on both sides of the ice, but he needs to be more confident with the puck. He should be signed to a contract this summer to come over with the Rampage. Round 7 - 183rd overall - LD Anders Harvey - R - 5'11/189 - Minnesota Owls (MJHL) - 7/3/1993 - Moose Lake, Minnesota 2010-11 - Minnesota (MJHL) - 60GP - 13G - 36A - 49PTS - Unranked - Commited to Dartmouth (2011) Anders Harvey is another rather unknown player who was captain of the Minnesota Owls of the Minnesota Junior Hockey League. He is said to be an incredible three-sports athlete who recently chose to concentrate on hockey by commiting to Dartmouth. He is an average skater, but makes up with amazing determination and work rate. He is a two-way defender who is a coach's dream because of his poise with the puck and his great attitude. He will be a player to watch in the NCAA.

Free Agency period starts July 1st 2011 - Zdeno Chara, Brad Richards, Pavol Demitra, Andrei Markov and Chris Pronger are the biggest names of this summer's defensemen-heavy unrestricted free agents market.

Coyotes sign Eric Brewer The Kansas City Coyotes added a big name to their defensive core today by signing 32-years-old Canadian defenseman Eric Brewer to a three-year deal. Brewer will earn 4.4M$ p/y with this contract. The former 5th overall draft selection was traded to the San Jose Sharks last season after spending 5 and a half seasons seasons with the St. Louis Blues. He should bring a new dimension to the Coyotes as a defenseman who can do anything asked from him; he can play on well on both sides of the ice and can be used on the left or right side. The Coyotes also signed free agent goaltender Jordan Parise to a one-year two-way deal. #4 Eric Brewer - LD/RD - L - 6'3/218 - 32-years-old - Vernon, British Columbia

Fillion tried; players wouldn't follow GM Nicolas Fillion has announced that he is done on the free agents market; and by his own words, the summer was a huge disappointment. Although very happy with the addition of defenseman Eric Brewer that brings the team's defensive core to another level, the Coyotes tried to add some key players but have fallen short on every occasion. Rumours say that team failed to reach agreements with free agents Brad Richards, Jason Arnott, Adam Mair and Richard Zednik among others, despite putting a lot of money on the board.

Keep it up Duff, even if you are a dirty GSP lover.
I assume your team isn't good enough to acquire top guys unless you pay totally out the ass? You think Lindbland plays on the big club or stays in Juniors? |

Lindblad is not ready. And for the record, Ruzicka will be a stud. EDIT: I've rarely seen any athletes more down to earth and likeable than GSP. If you at least had a good reason to hate him...

Randell will stay up September 28th 2011 - One of the top prospects in the National Hockey League, 20-years-old winger Travis Randell will stay up with the Kansas City Coyotes to start the season. The St. John's, Newfoundland native scored a goal and an assist in five pre-season games. His promotion to the Coyotes was the key factor in the demotion of winger Jack Combs, who failed to impress in the pre-season. Among other players who were sent down were goaltender Jordan Parise, defensemen Aaron Ness and Maksim Goncharov as well as forwards Kirill Kabanov and Andrew Kozek. PRE-SEASON - September 16th 2011: Coyotes at Dallas, 2-0 L, Pavelec [L] (24/25) & Parise (6/7) PRE-SEASON - September 19th 2011: Coyotes at Buffalo, 4-1 L, (Kabanov), Parise [L] (18/21) & Pavelec (31/32) PRE-SEASON - September 20th 2011: Kansas City vs. Edmonton, 5-0 L, Denis [L] (31/36) PRE-SEASON - September 22nd 2011: Coyotes at Minnesota, 5-3 L, (Kaspar, Brewer, Randell), Denis [L] (31/36) PRE-SEASON - September 24th 2011: Coyotes at Montreal, 6-0 L, Denis [L] (45/51)

With his two points performance, Randell was named the first star of the game by the experts present at the Scottrade Center in St. Louis. October 4th 2011: Coyotes at St. Louis, 4-3S L, (Lombardi 1, Kelly 1, Pyatt 1), Denis [OTL] (30/33) Kansas City Coyotes (1GP, 0-0-1, 1 point)

Home opener ruined by officiating October 11th 2011 - The Coyotes were hoping for a win on their home opener today at the Sprint Center, but referees Russ Reinhart had other things in mind. After giving Marek Svatos the first penalty of the game one minute in, Reinhart gave the next fourteen penalites to the Coyotes who got out with a total of 40 penalty minutes to the Kings' 2. The Kings went away with a 6-4 win, shooting 58 times at an overwhelmed Marc Denis for the win. "We are going to put in an official complain to the NHL about the work of mister Reinhart and . For now, this is all that is going to be said." said coach Dineen. Russ Reinhart is usually considered a fair referee. He officiated 41 games last season, giving out an average of 7 minor penalties every game. The Hockey News, who ranks referees through the year for their game-to-game performance, rated Reinhart fourteenth for the 2010-11 season with a 7.76 rating. Rookie referee Connor Wilequet was the highest ranked with 8.00 while Marty Vorderegger was the most poorly rated with 6.79. October 6th 2011: Coyotes at Detroit, 4-1 L, (Artyukhin 1), Denis [L] (29/33) October 11th 2011: Kansas City vs. Los Angeles, 6-4 L, (Schremp 1, Kaspar 1, Krysanov 1, Kelly 2), Denis [L] (52/58) Kansas City Coyotes (3GP, 0-2-1, 1 point)

Denis pulls harmstring; Parise called up October 18th 2011 - Marc Denis suffered a pulled harmstring in the Coyotes' 2-1 loss to the Dallas Stars yesterday in Kansas City. He will miss about 3 weeks of action and has been placed on the injured reserve. Kansas City has called up Jordan Parise from the San Antonio Rampage to backup Ondrej Pavelec. Parise won one of his three games in the AHL, allowing 9 goals and maintaining a 90.9SAV%.

Winless Coyotes make changes October 29th 2011 - The Coyotes are not playing poor hockey, but they can't seem to buy a win. After 10 games this season, the Coyotes have yet to beat a single team, only managing two points from overtime losses. Most of the top players have been very good; Kaspar, Carter and Schremp have combined for 38 points while Victor Hedman has been a key player defensively. Denis Kulyash and Matthew Lombardi have played subpar hockey and will need to improve quickly. Kevin Dineen will use complete line overhaul for the next game in Vancouver, hoping to earn a single win before the end of the month. Alexei Semenov will be out of the lineup for three weeks with a hip flexor strain. LINES FOR THE OCTOBER 31ST GAME AGAINST VANCOUVER Axelsson - Schremp - Carter
Kaspar - Lombardi - Randell Pyatt - Kelly - MacMillan Karamnov - Krysanov - Artyukhin Hedman - Kulyash Kronwall - Brewer McKee - Semenov Parise Pavelec October 19th 2011: Coyotes at Minnesota, 4-3 L, (Axelsson 1, Karamnov 1, Carter 2), Pavelec [L] (28/32) October 20th 2011: Kansas City vs. New York R, 6-2 L, (Kaspar 3, Pyatt 2), Pavelec [L] (21/27) October 22nd 2011: Kansas City vs. Portland, 5-3 L, (Carter 3-4, Schremp 3), Parise [L] (33/38) October 25th 2011: Kansas City vs. New Jersey, 4-3OT L, (Carter 5, Randell 2, Schremp 4), Pavelec [OTL] (24/28) October 27th 2011: Coyotes at Ottawa, 4-2 L, (Carter 6-7), Pavelec [L] (29/33) Kansas City Coyotes (10GP, 0-8-2, 2 points, 15th in the West)

Falling apart from the start November 1st 2011 - The season has barely begun, and everything already seems to be falling appart for the Kansas City Coyotes. Without a single win in October and with a team playing without any confidence, things couldn't have started any worse. Goaltender Marc Denis, who has missed seven games with injuries, should be back in the next few days. The Coyotes will start November with a 5-games home streak followed by a 5-games away stretch. "I'd like to say there's an easy way out of it, but it all comes down to confidence." said head coach Kevin Dineen. Anson Carter won the October edition of the Sprint Cup. Carter scored 10 goals and 6 assists for 16 opints in 11 games. He beat Lukas Kaspar and Rob Schremp in the voting. NHL Offensive Player of the Month: C Jason Spezza, Ottawa Senators (14GP - 10G - 14A - 24PTS) NHL Defensive Player of the Month: G Roberto Luongo, Vancouver Canucks (11GP - 9W - 1.92GAA - 93.6SAV% - 2SO) NHL Rookie of the Month: RW Zack Kassian, Detroit Red Wings (8GP - 3G - 1A - 4PTS) NHL Goals Leader: 13 - RW Jarome Iginla, Calgary Flames NHL Assists Leader: 14 - C Jason Spezza, Ottawa Senators NHL Points Leader: 26 - RW Jarome Iginla, Calgary Flames NHL Defenseman Points Leader: 12 - D Sergei Gonchar, Chicago Blackhawks NHL Rookie Points Leader: 7 - C Taylor Hall, Chicago Blackhawks October 31st 2011: Coyotes at Vancouver, 8-4 L, (Carter 8-9-10, Lombardi 2), Parise [L] (35/43) Kansas City Coyotes (11GP, 0-9-2, 2 points, 15th in the West)

Heated player meeting after another loss November 4th 2011 - The Kansas City Coyotes lost yet another game yesterday, leaving them with 13 consecutive winless games to start the 2011-12 season. Following the game, it took more than half an hour past the legal limit before the lockerroom was open for the media, which will result in a noteworthy fine for the Coyotes' organization. A player meeting, without the coaches, was the reason for that situation. Although the first words following the arrival of media members in the locker room were "no comments", it looks like the meeting was very heated and that punches were close to being traded. Team captain Anson Carter, who leads the team in points and who has arguably been the most consistent player for the whole year, was behind the meeting and reportedly did most of the talking. At the arrival of the media in the lockerroom, 20-years-old rookie Travis Randell seemed particularly shaken by what he had just witnessed. "I wasn't aware they were going to do this. Obviously there are some things to be said; there comes a time where you have to burst the bubble before it gets too big... and it's gotten big enough." said head coach Kevin Dineen November 1st 2011: Kansas City vs. Florida, 3-2 L, (Schremp 5, Kelly 3), Pavelec [L] (33/36) November 3rd 2011: Kansas City vs. Atlanta, 3-2 L, (Hedman 1, Kaspar 4), Pavelec [L] (27/30) Kansas City Coyotes (13GP, 0-11-2, 2 points, 15th in the West)

Oof, tough losses man. I have been there in EHM 07 and it sucks as literally nothing seems to work. Have you contemplated a system change at all?
Also, I totally forgot what happens if you do win a complaint vs a Ref? |

I've tried some things, I've got a few ideas on how to get them back in the right track. My job is in danger right now, I'll have to get the guys going. IIRC, they simply say they agree with you and will avoid putting that ref in your team's games for a bit of time.

Coyotes win! November 6th 2011 - After a heated meeting following Tuesday's loss to the Atlanta Thrashers, the Kansas City Coyotes have finally earned their first win of the season. In his second game of the season, playing on the first line with Rob Schremp and Anson Carter in place of healthy scratch Per-Johan Axelsson, Stefan Meyer scored the game winning goal two minutes into the third period to lead the Coyotes to a 5-3 win over the Anaheim Ducks. Two deceptions since the start of the year, defenseman Denis Kulyash and centre Matthew Lombardi, contributed with goals in the win. Lukas Kaspar also scored twice to earn the first star of the game. November 6th 2011: Kansas City vs. Anaheim, 5-3 W, (Kaspar 5-6, Kulyash 1, Meyer 1, Lombardi 3), Pavelec [W] (28/31) Kansas City Coyotes (14GP, 1-11-2, 4 points, 15th in the West)

Dineen fired November 28th 2011 - It took much longer than anyone would have ever imagined, but the Kansas City Coyotes have finally decided to part way with head coach Kevin Dineen. With an abysmal two wins in 23 games to start the season, the Coyotes are already well on their way to a last place finish for the second time in their four year history. Assistants David Bell, Rick Ley and Craig Simpson were also let go. "We were hoping to have a long future with Kevin behind the bench. We are unfortunate to let him go because he truly showed the dedication and attitude we wanted to bring to our team. With the beginning of the season, the move was unevitable." said GM Fillion, who according to some may be fighting for his own job at the moment. The staff of the AHL's San Antonio Rampage will serve as interim for the next few days. Greg Ireland will be assisted by Steve Brière and Gerald Overton. Assistant GM Jake Goertzen will also be behind the bench on an interim basis. November 10th 2011: Kansas City vs. San Jose, 5-2 L, (Carter 11-12), Denis [L] (32/37) November 13th 2011: Coyotes at St. Louis, 4-1 L, (Artyukhin 2), Denis [L] (36/40) November 15th 2011: Coyotes at Edmonton, 7-3 L, (Kaspar 7, Hedman 2, Kelly 4), Denis [L] (45/52) November 17th 2011: Coyotes at Portland, 6-5 W, (Carter 13, Krysanov 2, Pyatt 3, Lombardi 4, Randell 3-4), Denis (13/18) & Pavelec [W] (13/13) November 20th 2011: Coyotes at Calgary, 6-5 L, (Lombardi 5-6-7, Randell 5, Kelly 5), Pavelec [L] (34/40) November 23rd 2011: Coyotes at Columbus, 3-2 L, (Pyatt 4, Kulyash 2), Denis [L] (27/30) November 24th 2011: Kansas City vs. San Jose, 5-3 L, (Kaspar 8, Kelly 6, Carter 14), Denis [L] (27/32) November 27th 2011: Kansas City vs. Ottawa, 4-2 L, (Parent 1, Karamnov 3), Denis [L] (34/38) Kansas City Coyotes (23GP, 2-17-2, 6 points, 15th in the West)

Can things change in December? December 1st 2011 - The Kansas City Coyotes will hope for the wind to turn after firing their coaching staff. The month of December will probably be a determining factor for the Coyotes as to where they will be going to end the season. Although the playoffs already seem out of reach, it may be a good time to try and build a team out of individuals. Lukas Kaspar was the Sprint Cup winner for November with 5 goals and 8 assists for 13 points in 13 games. He beat Travis Randell and Matthew Lombardi in the voting process. Although he didn't win this segment of the Sprint Cup, Randell was named NHL Rookie of the Month. The Coyotes suffered two player losses in their win against St. Louis during the last game. Victor Hedman will miss the next two games with a thigh injury while Matthew Lombardi will miss at least 3 weeks with a rotator cuff strain. Rampage captain Eric Hunter was recalled to fill in for Lombardi, but will be scratched for the next game. NHL Offensive Player of the Month: C Patrick Marleau, San Jose Sharks (14GP - 15G - 12A - 27PTS) NHL Defensive Player of the Month: D Scott Hannan, Montreal Canadines (13GP - 1G - 12A - 13PTS) NHL Rookie of the Month: RW Travis Randell, Kansas City Coyotes (13GP - 3G - 9A - 12PTS) NHL Goals Leader: 23 - RW Jarome Iginla, Calgary Flames NHL Assists Leader: 26 - C Sidney Crosby, Pittsburgh Penguins NHL Points Leader: 43 - C Sidney Crosby, Pittsburgh Penguins NHL Defenseman Points Leader: 22 - D Scott Hannan, Montreal Canadines NHL Rookie Points Leader: 18 - RW Travis Randell, Kansas City Coyotes November 29th 2011: Coyotes at St. Louis, 3-2 W, (Brewer 1, Schremp 6-7), Denis [W] (21/23) Kansas City Coyotes (24GP, 3-17-2, 8 points, 15th in the West)

Babcock new head coach December 14th 2011 - The Kansas City Coyotes have hired their new head coach. Former Detroit Red Wings head coach Mike Babcock, who led them to the Stanley Cup in 2007-08, signed a four year deal with the Coyotes. Craig Ludwig, Kelly Miller and Chris Terreri will serve as his assistants. Babcock is 48 years old and was let go at the end of the last season by Detroit GM Ken Holland who hired Bruce Boudreau as his replacement. Meanwhile, Logan MacMillan has been sent down to the San Antonio Rampage. A full lineup, free of injury, is expected for tommorow's game against Portland. December 1st 2011: Kansas City vs. St. Louis, 4-2 W, (Kelly 7, Karamnov 3, MacMillan 2, Krysanov 3), Denis [W] (35/37) December 2nd 2011: Coyotes at Minnesota, 6-5S W, (Randell 6, Karamnov 4, Kelly 8, Artyukhin 3, Schremp 8), Denis [W] (34/39) December 5th 2011: Coyotes at San Jose, 4-3 L, (MacMillan 3-4, Hunter 1), Denis [L] (32/36) December 7th 2011: Coyotes at Los Angeles, 4-3 L, (Schremp 9, Brewer 2, Kelly 9), Denis [L] (32/36) December 9th 2011: Kansas City vs. Los Angeles, 2-1 L, (Semenov 1), Pavelec [L] (28/30) December 12th 2011: Coyotes at Chicago, 4-3 L, (Randell 7-8, Karamnov 5), Denis [L] (27/31) December 13th 2011: Kansas City vs. Toronto, 8-2 L, (Carter 15, Pyatt 5), Pavelec [L] (14/18) & Denis (28/32) Kansas City Coyotes (31GP, 5-24-2, 12 points, 15th in the West)

Babcock era starts on the right foot December 22nd 2011 - With a 6-0 win in Nashville today, highlighted by a three assists performance by Victor Hedman who had just turned 21 on December 18th, the Kansas City Coyotes have now won three of their last four games, impressing in each of these games with solid team work and success on the powerplay. Hedman has truly been the star of this team in the last 6 games in which he has 5 assists and a +7 rating. Lukas Kaspar, although he hasn't showed up on the scoreboard since the November 24th loss to the San Jose Sharks, has racked up assists since then. Kaspar has earned 13 assists in 13 games since his last goal and currently leads the team in points with 38. Travis Randell, who looks more like a ten year veteran than like a rookie on the ice, has been averaging the higest time on the ice for any forwards on the team, being used in every situation and responding well. New acquisition Eric Brewer, who has found success paired with Hedman, is also on a tear and has been incredibly solid in the last few weeks. December 15th 2011: Kansas City vs. Portland, 4-1 W, (Randell 9, Carter 16, Lombardi 8, Schremp 10), Denis [W] (24/25) December 18th 2011: Coyotes at New York I, 3-1 W, (Pyatt 6, Hunter 2, Kelly 10), Denis [W] (18/19) December 21st 2011: Coyotes at Washington, 4-3 L, (Karamnov 6, Schremp 11-12), Denis [L] (44/48) December 22nd 2011: Coyotes at Nashville, 6-0 W, (Krysanov 4, Schremp 13, Lombardi 9-10, Carter 17, Pyatt 7), Denis [W] (26/26) Kansas City Coyotes (35GP, 8-25-2, 18 points, 15th in the West)

Things are looking up for 2012 January 1st 2012 - Things can only get better in 2012 following the awful start to the season, and the month of December definitely went in that sense. With a new coaching staff, the team played better hockey and has made some significant moves forward. Rob Schremp, out of a month of 7 goals and 10 assists for 17 points in 14 games, was the December segment winner of the Sprint Cup. He beat Victor Hedman and Marc Denis in the voting. Meanwhile, Erik Haula was the AHL Rookie of the Month. The 20-years-old finnish winger scored 15 goals and 9 assists in 15 games. He currently leads the Rampage with 43 points in 35 games, which puts him fourth in the league. His 23 goals also lead the league. NHL Offensive Player of the Month: LW Ilya Kovalchuk, Chicago Blackhawks (15GP - 15G - 13A - 28PTS) NHL Defensive Player of the Month: D Sergei Gonchar, Chicago Blackhawks (15GP - 4G - 15A - 17PTS) NHL Rookie of the Month: LW Artem Gareev, Dallas Stars (12GP - 5G - 4A - 9PTS) NHL Goals Leader: 39 - LW Ilya Kovalchuk, Chicago Blackhawks NHL Assists Leader: 39 - C Sidney Crosby, Pittsburgh Penguins NHL Points Leader: 68 - RW Jarome Iginla, Calgary Flames NHL Defenseman Points Leader: 37 - D Sergei Gonchar, Chicago Blackhawks NHL Rookie Points Leader: 28 - RW Travis Randell, Kansas City Coyotes December 28th 2011: Kansas City vs. Montreal, 5-2 L, (Randell 10, Kelly 11), Denis [L] (35/40) December 30th 2011: Kansas City vs. Detroit, 3-2 L, (Carter 18, Hedman 3), Denis [L] (29/32) Kansas City Coyotes (38GP, 8-27-3, 19 points, 15th in the West)

Can Kovalchuk go 50 in 50? January 4th 2012 - With a hat trick tonight, Ilya Kovalchuk now has 42 goals in 44 regular season games. Playing on a line with Olli Jokinen and Dainius Zubrus in Chicago, also helped by Sergei Gonchar and Brent Seabrook on defense, Kovalchuk leads the league in goal scoring by 8 goals. Only five players have scored 50 goals in 50 games in the history of the NHL. Maurice Richard did it for the first time in 1944-45. Mike Bossy was the next to do it in 1980-81. Wayne Gretzky then did it thrice, scoring 50 goals in 39 games and 61 in 50 games in 1981-82, scoring 50 goals in 42 games and 61 in 50 games in 1983-84 and finally scoring 50 goals in 49 games before scoring a hat trick in the fiftieth game. Mario Lemieux scored 50 goals in 46 games in 1988-89, scoring 54 in 50 games and ending the season with 85 goals. The last player to do it was Brett Hull, who did it in 1990-91 and 1991-92. Unofficial 50 goals scorers in 50 games have been scored five different times. Jari Kuri scored his 50th goal in his 50th game in 1984-85, but it was the team's 53rd game. Alexander Mogilny scored his 50th goal in his 46th game in 1992-93, but it was also his team's 53rd game. Mario Lemieux scored 50 goals in less than 50 games in 1992-93 and 1995-96 but had not played in every game by his team up to that point. Cam Neely scored 50 goals in 44 games in 1993-94, faster than any player other than Gretzky and Lemieux, but it was the Bruins' 66th game of the season. Bobby Hull, Charlie Simmer and Bernie Nicholls all scorer all had near misses, scoring their 50th goal in the 51st or 52 games of the season. Ilya Kovalchuk has played in all of the Blackhawks' game this season. The Blackhawks will play their 50th game in a bit more than a week on January 16th in Nashville. January 1st 2012: Coyotes at Philadelphia, 4-2 W, (Karamnov 7-8, Kelly 12, Krysanov 5), Denis [W] (30/32) January 3rd 2012: Kansas City vs. St. Louis, 4-2 W, (Schremp 15, Carter 19, Kelly 13, Lombardi 11), Denis [W] (33/35) Kansas City Coyotes (40GP, 10-27-3, 23 points, 15th in the West)
