Ron Hainsey has  been promoted to Assistant Executive Director of the NHLPA union. He’s come a long way since his retirement from the league and has been a staunch supporter of Marty Walsh.
Sources: Ron Hainsey has been promoted to @NHLPA Assistant Executive Director.
Hainsey ran point on the search process, was instrumental in the hiring and – as a result – has gained significant clout since the appointment of Marty Walsh as Executive Director.

Unfortunately, things aren’t going well on the other side of the hockey world. The Arizona Coyotes lost their bid to build a new home in Tempe (paid for by the people of Tempe). Now the Coyotes are going back to college with the future completely uncertain. Ownership is still shocked by the vote and is putting on a brave face, but even the most ardent fans (Craig Morgan excluded) know the Coyotes are done in Arizona.

Clayton Keller knows it, too. Or at least his dad does. This is going to get messy.
So Clayton Keller won’t be in Arizona to start the season per… his dad??? pic.twitter.com/ZdpjLgVbGw

Unless the Coyotes are being sold, I don’t exactly know what Kevin means. In their case, cities don’t want them around and the guy owning them is basically running an insurance fraud. I see nothing about this situation that is robust. Atlanta is back on the map, but the north side this time.
**Update**
As I’ve stated here over the last year : Expressed interest in potential ownership in @NHL clubs has been robust. From purchase (Ottawa), potential relocation (Arizona), and Expansion (Houston, Salt Lake, North Georgia, + more). ⏰. #HockeyTwitter— Kevin Weekes (@KevinWeekes) May 17, 2023
Patrick Roy is back in the news. CBJ also tried to get a hold of Mike Babcock but he said no.

This is a cool story about Matthew Tkachuk and Jayson Tatum being high school buddies.
One is Boston’s hero. One is Boston’s nightmare. And back in 2013, Jayson Tatum and Matthew Tkachuk were grinning teenagers in a St. Louis gymnasium, filming a project for a freshman-year broadcast class.

Matvei Michkov isn’t going to the Draft Combine, which might place him perfectly in the reaches of the Washington Capitals as they’re looking at the “buy low” draft prospect who had all the hype in the world when he was 15.
