No deadline set for Coyotes new franchise

[puckhead]

I'm pretty sure I recall a promotion in Arizona grocery stores where purchasing a 24 case of beer came with two tickets to a Coyotes game.

when I visited Glendale to see the Canucks, the game before that was Dallas and it was $1 beer night.
beers at the Canuck game were $12 or so. I got the right side of the "I'll but the tickets, you buy the beer" deal.

lol wouldnt that be awesome. One lucky spectator wins the entire franchise.

Knowing the NHL as the winner was celebrating, they'd give them an overdue tax bill they'd have to pay before taking ownership.

Canucks fans can't be called conspiracy theorists on the NHL being against us when it's true

All that matters is the "spirit" of the cap.

Actually, it's continue the delusion day in Arizona...

Arizona Coyotes owner Alex Meruelo has put in a letter of intent to purchase 41 acres in Mesa for the team’s new arena, per Arizona Sports’ John Gambadoro. This would begin a process to develop the first privately funded sports and entertainment district in the state.

Meruelo is still looking into other possible sites, with areas in the East Valley, including Mesa, Phoenix and Scottsdale, according to Gambadoro.

Meruelo’s goal is to have multiple sites under contract so there are options. This is to have a plan in place by the first quarter of 2024, so a target date is hit for a new arena’s completion in time for the start of the 2026-27 season. This would continue the Coyotes’ efforts and intention of staying in the Valley.

When I rode through Frederick, Maryland I was surprised to see a satellite parking lot for the Coyotes.
