Looks like a cool place to watch a Basketball Game. 2b9πππ It's a great fan base so that's great but the arena is blah and was probably built 1 to 2 years too soon to be considered modern. The United Center, Boston and Cleveland's arenas are the 1st modern NBA arenas. The most famous moment in NBA history did take place here on the left hand side. Michael Jordan made his final shot in a bulls uniform to give the Bulls their 6th NBA title giving the Bulls a 1 pt win. [/quote] Ah, Ok. Cool thing about that momentπ. Cheers, 2b9πππ

billion dollars sitting in escrow...wonder how tempting that will be to not try and revive the coyotes. also curious how much of that is cash, how much of it is forgiven debt etc. That's a great question. I do think he wants to get this done but the question is can he pull it off? Most of the Coyote fans really hate him. I just don't see the point of having a 3rd arena with such a shady owner. The goal should be to come back to Phoenix right not the fastest. They should give it a rest for 10-15 years and have the suns owner bring them back with a shared downtown arena not this half @ss plan. The suns owner has big $$$. I just saw today he gave Greyson Allen a 4yr $70M extension that pays him $15M the 1st year that with luxury tax penalties comes out to $79M dollars. That's the type of big $$$ owner you need. All very good pointsπ. Cheers, 2b9πππ

Winnipeg Jets/Canada Life Centre capacity: 15,350+/-. 2b9πππ Yes but it doesn't lose high $$$ seats right behind the net. [/quote] Very True. Cheers, 2b9πππ

I agree it would be suns owner or bust, but Bettman may have to get creative to keep Muerello out

Since we have a new "franchise" being formed out of the old one....
Lets name the team!
Utah has some really solid Wild Life choices and natural type names.
My choices Utah Miners (not alliteration but I would love to see a brown color theme, maybe a hockey stick shaped like a pic axe?) Salt Lake City Stingers (they are the honey bee state) Salt Lake City Spiders Salt Lake City Sidewinders Utah Mountaineers
other local animals - They have wolves, owls, cougars, all sorts of rattle snakes in the mojave. Condors scorpions etc.

I really hope Meuerello fails.

Mark Messier played for them. Previously the WHL had a SLC Gulls team For the young'uns a wiki link to the Cinci Stingers.. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cincinnati_Stingers

Highlights of the Coyotes last game a 5-2 win over the Oilers.
The postgame
Shane Doan gives his thoughts. He thinks there is a good foundation in place for hockey in Arizona
