They've been the "Arizona Coyotes" since 2014 and "Phoenix" from 1996 but then again, the Sabres haven't made the playoffs since 2011 so it all checks out!
Ottawa sold for 950M so that was the new floor. Selling for anything less than that devalues the franchise’s going forward.
In a side note, the 1B Meruleo is getting for the Coyotes is what he would pay back to the league IF he reactivates the franchise with the 5 year window he’s getting to do so. That obviously means that he’d have to have a building built, etc which I don’t see happening. The 1B he’s getting is “go away” money. He’s a bad, bad owner and league really wants nothing to do with him anymore.
Arizona isn’t being bought on the cheap. Rumor has it 1B is the purchase price for the franchise and 300M for the relocation fee to be spread amongst the other 31 owners.
In all seriousness, Houston would make a great NHL city. I think they'll get one when the league eventually expands to 34 and then 36.
SLC does have a rich hockey history. From the Golden Eagles of the WHL and then the CHL to the Grizzlies of the IHL to the AHL and now ECHL... continuously from 1969 through this season.
Hockey is a sport that the most populous cities don't mean success, Phoenix is the fifth most populous city in the US and that is soon to be a former NHL city.
Need someone in Houston to want to buy them and Ryan Smith has been doing everything he can to buy the Coyotes and bring them to SLC. They have a ton of good prospects and draft capital and he's not going to be afraid to spend to make them a contender, right away.
It's a great spot for a team and their local rivalry with Colorado is going to be a good one from Day 1.
I think he added another “b” and he’s talking about grub, meaning food and he’s complaining that all the food is headed to the Northwest and he’s not there so he’ll starve to death.
I really didn’t care about the Super Bowl this year because of the matchup. Been there, done that. Lions out, Ravens out. Meh.
Then I thought of this angle and I’m with you, I want to see the Chiefs win just to see a subset of the population absolutely lose their minds over the dumbest reasoning in the world.

1 & 9 are obviously the most important reasons!

Sorry guys!
I absolutely love that even though Jim has left us, his utter disdain for Ryan and Ohio State still pulses through his veins!
Jesus fucking Christ, we’re having holy wars on MGoBlog now?
Well, that’s less than ideal!
This is why you grill thighs over any other part of a chicken. Cook them perfectly, overcook them... doesn’t matter... still juicy either way!
JJ climbing that ladder after today!
As a Giants fan, I loved Joe Morris as a kid!

Is that what that mess was?
Also, helmet sticker? Nice!!!
I forgot Will Johnson is just now going into his Junior year... seems unfair to the opposition. Oh well, fuck ‘em!
I remember that guy... he went from “insiderr” to non-stop shit poster real quick!
I think you mean Quasimodo.
Just another day in America... fucking ridiculous! When will this ever end?
Smoking a super bowl would make the Super Bowl a lot more fun!
Legendary. The entire set list and performance was.

Who are you and what have you done with the real Sal?
How do you not have less points?
I really do not endorse or support doxxing in anyway whatsoever but holy shit Sal, I can see why!
Damn, I was convinced your initials were XM! Great story!
The internet is hard!
Yes, how dare Jim try to bring the coordinators he hand picked, hired and won with to LA, with him!
/s
He aligns with Sal’s agenda... even if X is not the edge of the internet.
Really testing my patience, lately.
If you read things on the edge of the internet, you know!
/s
Edge of the internet, of course!
Finally, a post with perspective!
That is putting it way too kindly. This post less so but Sal’s OP and especially subsequent posts about Clint Hurtt was next level type shit!
I think he added another “b” and he’s talking about grub, meaning food and he’s complaining that all the food is headed to the Northwest and he’s not there so he’ll starve to death.
Holy shit, this fucking place over the last few weeks!!!
Got a date at Topgolf?

If you want the Chiefs to lose because Taylor Swift gets 30 seconds of airtime through a 180+ minute broadcast, that’s on you.
Some of us still are!
Hurtts so good!
Thank you, sir!
