Wayne Gretzky will be repaid money he was owed by former Phoenix Coyotes owner Jerry Moyes, the NHL agreeing to cut a cheque to the Great One after reaching a tentative deal, sources tell TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun of ESPN. Vapormax Plus Saldi .com. Sources would not confirm the exact figure, but its believed to be around $7 to $8 million. The NHL for the past few years had sought to get the money owed to Gretzky from Moyes via a lawsuit but a judge threw out most of the leagues claims from the suit against Moyes in early October. In light of the delays associated with the Moyes litigation, the Audit/Finance Committee from the NHLs Board of Governors approved a plan to make Gretzky whole for deferred compensation owed to him by Moyes, and which was never paid as a result of the Coyotes bankruptcy back in September 2009, source told ESPN.com. "I never got the sense from talking to Gretzky over the years that he was sour against the league," LeBrun said. "He was sour that he didnt have his money yet from Phoenix, but thats a separate thing. Thats Jerry Moyes that owed him and not the NHL. This is the right thing done here by the NHL to move directly." In May 2009, Moyes put the Coyotes into bankruptcy. He intended to sell the club to Canadian billionaire Jim Balsillie, who intended to purchase the team out of bankruptcy and move it to Hamilton, Ontario. Hearings were held in Phoenix bankruptcy court to determine the fate of the Coyotes and the holding company. Two potential bidders for the team surfaced - Chicago White Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf and Ice Edge Holdings, Inc. - but they did not put in bids for the team at the bankruptcy hearing. Instead, the NHL put in the only rival bid to Balsillie for the team. Ultimately, the Phoenix court ruled that the team could not be sold to Balsillie, as the judge held that bankruptcy could not be used to subvert the leagues rules. The NHLs original bid was also insufficient for the bankruptcy judge, since it did not treat Moyes and Gretzky as full creditors. Later, the NHL settled with Moyes, with the league buying the team and assuming all debts. The NHL operated the team in Phoenix for four seasons while seeking a new owner. After several prospective purchases fell through, the team was finally sold in the summer of 2013. Vapormax Bianche Ingrosso .

And the worst part of this is, Im sure Im going to be a better coach along the way and Im probably never going to win the Jack Adams again.It was a great year. It was fun, but now its behind us.The Avalanche are on a two-game swing through Roys old patch, with games Thursday night in Montreal, where he starred for the Canadiens for 10 seasons, and Friday night in Quebec City, where he built the Remparts into a Quebec Major Junior Hockey League power after his Hall of Fame playing career ended.Roy was lured away last season to become head coach and vice president of hockey operations for the Avalanche, who he helped win two Stanley Cups after his bitter parting with the Canadiens in 1996.The fiery Roys impact was felt immediately on a team stacked with budding stars like Matt Duchene, Gabriel Landeskog and 2013 first overall draft pick Nathan MacKinnon.The Avs finished second overall in the Western Conference and tied a franchise record with 52 victories, although they lost in seven games to Minnesota in the first round of playoffs.Roy told his players at the start of camp not to focus on trying to match the 112 points, but to keep improving their overall game.Were playing in a tough conference, and its pretty easy to be humble in that conference, he said. With the quality of the teams, you know that to make the playoffs you have to be outstanding all year.Last year we were lucky and didnt have many injuries. This is a big factor. We could have as good or better a year than last year and not have 112 points. We want to make sure we continue to get better. Our young guys need to continue to grow. This is how were going to measure ourselves, not with the number of points.Roy wants to continue to play entertaining, offence-oriented hockey, but to improve on defence as well. He understands the Avalanches style leads to a lot of shots against, but he feels if they keep shooters more to the outside and cut down on quality scoring chances they will be a better team.The Avs had five players with 60 or more points last season, although one of them, Paul Stastny, left as a free agent for St. Loouis. Vapormax Bianche In Offerta. Roy opted to fill the void with older, more experienced players to provide leadership for his young squad. Jarome Iginla was signed as a free agent, and P.A. Parenteau was traded to Montreal for veteran centre Daniel Briere.We were not looking for guys that necessarily be the top players on the team, but we were looking for veterans who could help our younger players to continue to grow, he said.Parenteau filled a need in Montreal, which lost right wingers Thomas Vanek and Brian Gionta in the off-season.The diminutive Briere did not get a lot of ice time in Montreal playing mostly on the fourth line, but he was best in the playoffs, particularly in a tough seven-game win over rival Boston. The Avs intend to use him on their third line.Roy said the deal was good for both clubs.You want players that are happy with you, he said. Im not saying P.A. wasnt happy with us, but this year it would have been tough for him to play on the top two lines and I think he would have been unhappy.This trade will serve him very well. He can play on the top two lines in Montreal, play on the power play. Hes a very good hockey player and Im sure the people in Montreal will love him.Briere and another former Canadien, Alex Tanguay, were not in the lineup in Montreal but were slated to play in Quebec City, which will be an Avs home game.Briere, a Gatineau, Que., native, had only good things to say about is one season in Montreal, which included a trip to the Eastern Conference final.I feel fortunate that I had the chance to play here and wear that uniform for a season, he said. The playoff run we had, and winning in seven games in a Original Six series with Boston was really cool. So there were a lot of good memories.Briere rejoined the team after spending two days in Philadelphia with his son Caeren, who broke a thigh bone playing hockey and underwent surgery on Monday.Duchene, who led the Avs with 70 points last season, likes having the new veterans around.Theyve been through the battles, he said. Theyre looking to win the Cup and they saw us as a team that has a chance. Its good for us young guys. You can learn from the best.Roy said the veterans were excited to see pre-season games scheduled for Montreal and Quebec City, which is where the franchise started out from 1979 to 1995 before moving to Denver.So was Duchene.I love coming into the Bell Centre and looking at the banners up top, he said. Its pretty cool playing under Maurice Richards banner. Hes the reason I wear no. 9. ' ' '
