No more expansion, just relocation. The league is too big already, you might as well save some money and go to an AHL game.

Utah cut $1 billion from education so they can get a hockey team.

I would be surprised if the Coyotes aren’t forced to move come 2026 season if nothing is finalized in Arizona

The real question is, will this be a completely new team, or will Arizona finally be relocated

Isn’t this more for them to be able to host the Winter Olympics, and they can then use if for those teams after?

Didn’t the leaders of the Mormontology church just build like a $1 billion mall to revitalize the city, just as malls were dying off?

If they want a more vibrant capital they could just keep the mall open on Sundays

Well that sucks if they are building it for dual purpose…should be hockey only

You’ll have to allow more than three bars to open in downtown for that to happen Utah.

That’s a creative way of saying you’ll just dump them somewhere else.

Don’t forget to wear your magical underpants!
I hope Hanes or Joe Boxer sponsors this arena.

They’re trying to gain an expansion franchise like Trump got the Presidency. First mention everyone laughs it off. Then just keep saying it and generating more and more buzz and people start taking it seriously/expecting it to happen.
Relocate AZ fine, but go to 33 teams? Ugh at least go 34 and keep it balanced.

So they weren’t a train wreck for multiple decades like the coyotes? Not a good comparison then at all huh
