Arizona Coyotes To Face Major Legal Battle After Terminating Players Contract

«With #Yotes expected to officially terminate Adam Ruzicka's contract today, reminder that #NHLPA has 60 days to file a grievance.

There is a reason the union helps operate the Player Assistance program - players should be directed there for help instead of terminated."

"Forever in the #NHL, contract termination was the last resort - something rarely attempted for fear of reprisal from a strong union.

For players, watching teams terminate and then shrug and know they'll battle it out later to mostly favorable results should be a very troubling trend"

"To that end, the clock is still ticking on the extension that was granted to #NHLPA on potentially filing a grievance against the #Blackhawks to challenge Corey Perry's termination from November.

To date, no grievance has been filed.»
