All 4 teams are fully aware of the set up per Coyotes' president and the NHL/NHLPA have signed off - his statement at 1:45. That looks a lot more like a refugee processing site than an NHL dressing room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is one of the major problems, I don't think they want to expand past 32 and absolutely no team currently in the east will move to the West. None of them, it would be fought massively.

Ghostsof1915 Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Don't do it Tempe. That's how Glendale got suckered in. $180 Million of the cost of the arena in Glendale. $15 million in "management fees" from the city each year. So overall the city lost $450 million dollars (give or take). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maginator Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Honestly I hope hockey can succeed there. It's a huge market, but if the Yotes continue to have an empty barn in the future this will be a colossal failure. I really can't see anyone going to these games if the team sucks.

Can confirm; measly crowd at the SJ game and that is a much better location, or was. Heck, we probably had better attendance during a blizzard.

Tempe is much more centrally located, closer to the airport, closer to the money in Scottsdale and right beside a bunch of partying college kids with more disposable income. Kind of like building an arena on the western outskirts of Kanata instead of downtown Ottawa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Heffy Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 I'm not sure whether the Arizona situation or the corruption in the officiating ranks is as bigger disgrace to the league. Unfortunately, neither will be resolved until Bettman is replaced with someone who respects the sport. This has gone on far too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuck73_3 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 The only part that bugs me about this is when Winnipeg and Quebec had their arena issues the moving trucks couldn’t come fast enough. Now this franchise that sells out a game once a decade gets a 30 year no move clause. Slap in the face to the fans that actually prop up this sport. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
