When, not if, Jamison's house of cards collapses, look for Calgary oil $$ to try to ride to Bettman's rescue in Phoenix.

Alberta oil dollars to the rescue

Is this portlands shot though????

Reports surface of new suitor for Coyotes

Would Joyce Clark support a Canadian poacher if it keeps the team in Glendale?

Coyotes introduce the GOALden Ticket:

The Phoenix Coyotes announced today a new ticket package called the GOALden Ticket. The GOALden Ticket allows fans to purchase one of two ticket packages to attend anywhere from one to 10 of the Coyotes final 2012-13 regular season home games in lower level seats (regularly priced at $75) at Jobing.com Arena. The package will go on sale to the public on Monday, February 18.

By purchasing the first ticket package for $100, a fan will receive five (5) goals on their GOALden Ticket. Beginning on March 9 versus the Dallas Stars, fans will be able to see up to 10 Coyotes home games until the team gives up five (5) goals at Jobing.com Arena. Once that happens, the GOALden Ticket is void.

The second ticket package provides the fan with 25 goals on their GOALden Ticket for the price of $250. Beginning on March 9 versus the Dallas Stars, fans will have an opportunity to attend up to 10 Coyotes home games until the team gives up 25 goals at Jobing.com Arena. Once this occurs, the GOALden Ticket is void.

As a bonus, if the Coyotes should record a shutout during any of the final 10 regular season home games from March 9 to April 26, during which their GOALden ticket is still valid, purchasers of the GOALden Ticket package will receive a free additional ticket to the Coyotes Fan Appreciation Night on April 26 versus the Colorado Avalanche. This offer if only valid for one Coyotes shutout during this time period.

I was thinking more along the lines of Hardy Astrom.

Interesting concept. So I guess as long as they don't get absolutely shelled by Dallas you'd save money with a $75/game regular price.

Compared to the first 10 home games last season, paid tickets for this season are up 30 percent, Nealy said.

The Coyotes define their attendance as tickets sold and complimentary tickets, which are free tickets distributed by the team. In the past, complimentary tickets would range from 3,000 to 5,000 per game, Nealy said, but this season they’ve usually been only a couple hundred and definitely less than 1,000.

The season-ticket base is also the largest since 1999, Nealy said, and the renewal rate is 90 percent — the highest in franchise history.

“Our average ticket price paid is up,” Nealy said. “We didn’t raise prices, but people are either buying more expensive tickets or not doing as much discounting so it’s good both on the volume and the pricing.”

The spike in interest also seems to have translated to the TV audience.

According to Fox Sports Arizona, 45,065 people on average watched the first 10 games on the network, a 150 percent increase over last year’s average.

How much actual cash do you think it would cost to get the team. Seems like we could get some schmucks in local government and banking to finance almost the whole price.

We'd eventually have to declare corporate bankruptcy (we'd make sure to insolate our personal estates) but think of the fun we could have owning a team for a few seasons.

remember when the jets started renovations on MTS centre in the spring of 2011 and some started asking the prospective ownership group if they were interested in the Thrashers seeing as they were in financial trouble ... and the people from True North clammed up and said nothing ... "nothing to see here"

today, TSN radio asked Marcel Aubut if Quebec City could host a team starting in September ... paraphrasing Monsieur Aubut ... "lets not talk about this"





/dont get to comfy with the Eastern conference CBJ

Gosbee nearing deal to purchase Coyotes - Sportsnet.ca

 

[IndyAndy]

"Once a deal in principle is complete with the NHL, it would be at that point that a new lease could be negotiated with the City of Glendale."

Maybe I'm missing something here: The object of this supposed purchase is to move the team, right? - Are they (the team) already on the hook with Glendale for use of the arena past this season?

True but I really hope that means Detroit is back in the west.

why not? based on the NHL's realignment skillz i bet they can find a way to have CBJ play in the cana-orida division to give them a western flair, AND move to a 17-13 split to make sure people keep laughing at the NHL

they has much talent.
