I’m sorry for all your Phoenix coyote fans out in Arizona, but you’re not getting the coyotes back. It’s not gonna happen and he’s not gonna win that land auction. The mayor is gonna make sure Of that.
2 rats jumping off the sinking ship, it was a disaster from the beginning, Bettman has a part to play in this fiasco. How can he continue to be in the loop, if Quebec City and Hartford aren't? The NHL has stunk too high heaven, ever since Bettman took over.
Classic Bettman– Let's not think about all of the ways the Coyotes management pissed off local communities, vendors, landlords, etc. Let's not talk about how Bettman was steadfast about keeping hockey in Arizona until $1 Billion materialized in Utah. Let's not talk about the windfall each current franchise will receive in relocation fees because the league bought out the Coyotes and granted Utah this franchise. Meruelo's statement sounded like he was reading a book report he didn't write. He then declares the Roadrunners will move to ASU… then backpedals, saying he doesn't know if they'll move… This guy is poison to the AHL and the NHL and needs to go away.
Tempe rather have a Dump than an NHL team. The referendum doomed the Coyotes, not to mention previous ownership. The people of Tempe and the Mayor of Scottsdale should be proud of themselves. Shame on them, no one ever thinks about the fans and the revenue that will be lost. Utah is getting a good young hockey team built by Alex Meruelo. I hope he wins the land auction, builds a first class arena and Coyotes 2.0 thrive in the desert.
Bettman is so rude. Credit to these guys for speaking publicly, though. Still both weasels. And don't take the Phoenix failure out on the fans in Tucson. Leave the Roadrunners alone.
Never should have left Phoenix. These bozos sold (moved from Phoenix) while the stock was down instead of holding and now they don't have a team anymore and the fans suffer.

Meruelo looks like he has clammy hands.
Meruelo self-catered a water and someone brought in another one. Bettman: I got this.
Surreal press conference. Gary basically took over and told Muerelo to shut up lol.
Leave the Roadrunners in Tucson, where they belong!
Best commissioner in all of sports.

The Coyotes won't be back. Not with this owner, at least. He scammed the NHL

This was very interesting to watch and I sincerely hope that all of this works-out in the long term.

Let's be realistic, Salt Lake City is a much more suitable location for a winter based sport than the desert
