Over the last few hours, the father of the best player of the Arizona Coyotes, Clayton Keller, set the internet ablaze by announcing that his son will no longer be with the Coyotes to start the next season.
They're tired of this whole saga:
»Keller will not be there at the beginning of the season and expect others to follow or not sign. Team will be moved, there are no other options and Phoenix will regret losing a professional sports team. City just got diluted from a perception standpoint. Privately financed too» - Keller's father
OUCH!!
And Bryan Keller adds that he expects other Coyotes players to do the same and decide not to play for them anymore (or simply not sign).
"The team is going to move, there are no other options, and Phoenix will regret losing a professional sports team." - Keller's father
We must admit that it's really special to see the father of a young player say that. I wonder what Clayton thinks.
It should be noted that Bryan Keller deleted his messages afterward, but of course, the damage was done.
See the immediate reaction of the player after last night's announcement:
Things will be stirring for the Coyotes in the coming weeks and months, hold on to your hat!
Do you really believe that the players will boycott the team? Do you think that Keller, who is a star player, has played his last game for them?
Keller, 24 years old, was the seventh overall pick in 2016. He scored 86 points last season (37 goals). He earns $7.15 million per season until 2028.
If Keller's trade request is confirmed, would you like Kent Hughes to inquire?
