Ryan Smith has been a great backer of Salt Lake and has brought so much to our city and his vision of the future is something I can get behind . No doubt in my mind renovations will be made and a brand new state of the art Hockey arena will be built. He has done so much for our city and does what he says . He will take good care of the franchise from top to bottom.

@MileHighScaleModeler13 күн бұрын
I agree they deserved better. Different ownership needs to happen to allow competency to be key. The last multiple ownership groups in the past decade lacked competency and didn’t pay their bills as they should. NHL needs to be more competent in vetting out these ownership groups and not allow them to keep selling within to the groups members to change up who has majority ownership. All this effort by Coyotes fans who actually attended games, just to watch the team leave and make the playoffs in the next year or two somewhere else. What a shame.

Minnesota checking in. Feel for the fans, we've been there. North Stars moved after much less effort to keep them here. Script was the same: poor management led to poor performance, which led to poor attendance. Then, arena deals couldn't be made with taxpayers. Hopefully, the NHL makes the new ownership keep the Coyotes name in Arizona for later use. Stars took the name with them to Dallas and it was like taking our identity as a fan base with them. That's why the Wild adopt so much from the pre-Norm Green era. Hopefully AZ gets a new team in the next 5-7 years. Expansion draft rules have helped create more competitive teams out of the gate. All the best to Arizona.

@@A7X31610 I'm a Habs fan in Canada and the trouble started when the team left Scottsdale and moved all the way out to Glendale. In doing so, the corporate folk in Scottsdale were not going to follow the Coyotes all the way out there. As a result, the arena had empty luxury boxes and the heart of the fan base was also left behind. While I'm not fully convinced the Coyotes would've been a cash cow by staying in Scottsdale, odds are they would not have become the headache they did for the NHL when the team was operating in Glendale. A city council pouring tax dollars, in a modest-sized suburb like Glendale, into propping up the hockey team was never the proper route. Many a taxpayer in Glendale tried to warn them; but they were so desperate to keep the team there. In the end, it all collapsed.

The thumbnail is heartbreaking. Not only is that person out of a job, she’s also saying goodbye to all the memories and sentimental moments she had attached to the team. It’s possible that, being an ice girl, she grew up as a kid with her dad taking her to games and this was one of the main things she had to remember him by. I know for me at least the Sharks have created countless great memories with my friends and family. Going to their games and becoming a part of the team culture helped bring my family and friends closer together and, if they suffered the same fate as the Coyotes, it would feel like a part of me died along with them. I just hate how so-called hockey “fans” dunk on this fanbase that’s endured almost 20 years straight of suckage and never had a fair chance to gain a real following in the area. Yes, their numbers are fewer but clearly there are still fans, and they are humans with the same emotions and precious memories attached to the team that you all feel for your clubs. To say “good riddance” or the Arizona fans don’t deserve that same joy that your team brings to you is just appalling to me.

It's understandable that Winnipeggers will be less sympathetic to Coyotes' fans than they would compared to, for example, Minnesota North Stars fans or Hartford Whalers fans. For every arrogant, egotistical hockey neophyte in Arizona (who deserve no sympathy whatsoever) there are a number of hockey fans who never wanted to gain a team at the expense of Winnipeg, nor any other city. Many in Winnipeg and around the NHL will view this outcome as a case of 'what goes around, comes around'; but one can still appreciate those good fans in Arizona and give them credit for the years of instability and uncertainty they were dragged through, and much more than the franchise ever did in Winnipeg.

I grew up playing hockey a long time ago. The Hawks practiced at my rink (Ridgeland Commons) when the Ice Capades were in town or the circus. I got to skate with the greats, Bobby and Dennis Hull, Stan Mikita, Phil and Tony Espo, Whitey Stapleton, and so on. I was a huge Hawks fan right up until the team canned Kaner and Towes. Brilliant move Hawks. I'm so sorry to see this happen to the Yotes. I know how loyal hockey fans are and what this means to the locals. It's a dang shame that these days the teams go to the highest bidder. When your citizens voted down the new arena/complex, that was pretty much the end of the line for the Yotes in Az. In a sense, it's awesome that the taxpayers had their say, but the price paid for the no vote is now being felt. I don't watch NHL at all these days. I haven't in a few years. The NHL got way to involved in every "movement" and that's not what I want to watch or see when I go to a game. There's a time and a place for organizations to back any and all movements they want to. Doing it to paying fans is a no go for me. Bettman has to go, end of story. Let's get back to sports and handle all of our other assorted stuff when the game's over. I'm all for any movement people want to back, 100%. I just don't want to be the person who paid good money to see a game and have an agenda, good or bad sold to me as I'm sitting there. But hey, you do you.

They don’t deserve this as a fanbase. The ownership didn’t deserve the team or the city. Keep your head up AZ you will be back it’s just a matter of time. Hopefully when you guys return you will have ownership who is as passionate as you are.

Such a shame. So many people put in so much work to make this franchise viable. Greed is the killer. Good luck to all.

One could accuse the NFL of being more greedy than the NHL. NFL teams, as a rule, make money, yet they still moved three teams in short succession. Every pro sports league wants all of its franchises to be reasonably viable. Like the Thrashers before them, the Coyotes found themselves in a desperate, facility revenue-draining situation. The Coyotes won't be in that state in Salt Lake City, and the Oakland A's won't be in said type of jackpot in Las Vegas.

I wasn’t a major sports fan when the Thrashers or the Supersonics moved.. seeing my Chargers leave San Diego for LA hurt though even though I decided to stick around as a fan.

Ryan Smith is going to take care of this team. Coyotes are moving to a market full of fans that have been hungry for a team since the 2002 Olympics.

That really sucks for any fan that loses a nhl team I really hope the coyotes get the money to build an arena and bring them back.

I feel so sorry for the fans in Arizona, for you're not at fault for this. Had it happen twice to us down here due to poor ownership in the '70s (see Flames, Atlanta) and negligent ownership over a decade ago (see Thrashers, Atlanta). Hopefully, you guys find another team to support or get another franchise down the line...

The Coyotes could have moved several times, but managed to stay. When a team has an unstable, unworkable arena situation for 20+ years, a move is inevitable. It is a shame. Class move by the announcers to just keep silent and let the historic moment play out.

If the Coyotes owner can win the bid for land on June 27th, they can get an expansion team. I am sorry to see the Coyotes move. Feel awful for the fans. Hope they can come back. June 27th is a key date.
