Doesn't matter if its temporary. Can you imagine if this was a Canadian team? They'd be shipped out of town in a heart beat. Its a disgrace

bro everything this team is going though.

Phx, Arz ,…seriously just let the team move on , move to Quebec. You’ll have more fans and with a provincial rivalry with the habs.

I wonder what nhl team is going to get their first transgender

Arizona has been mismanaged for so long, I think it does the league a disservice cutting them any more slack at this point. Their 2019-2020 draft combine violations comes to mind...

You dont need to, we will hear them all over broadcast.

"What's your major, asshole? Hahaha (snows in face)"

@@ReeseChown wow this is brutal

There will be no chirps. There will be no fans. Nobody in their right mind will pay those ticket prices. Lowest I could find was $150.00

at my college, we have a "safety school" chant for rival schools lmao

Hockey wasn’t invented in Phoenix though! Canada takes their national sport very seriously, on every level, not just pro

@@hellaacapella the thing is, the arena in Quebec is said to be NHL ready, and from the pictures I've seen of it, that's a true claim, and may be better than a few current arenas (cough cough, looking at you, Buffalo). Only issue is if the Canadiens hold the geographical rights to the area, even if it is 270km away, they may block the move. That's why there isn't much talk of a team in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. The Maple Leafs and Sabres would both nix that idea.

@@MikeyKaos716 - the Videotron Centre is everything an NHL building needs to be. It’s too much building for a QMJHL team but that’s where they play. The NHL could totally have Quebec in as an expansion team but Bettman doesn’t care to expand in Canada. The Habs wouldn’t block a move to put a team in Quebec. It existed before it could exist again. Plus the distance from Toronto to Hamilton is much shorter than Montreal/Quebec.

@@MikeyKaos716 I’ve never heard of geographical rights…. How does that play into LA or NYC or other states with multiple teams within close distance…?

@@hellaacapella I think it's a combination of two things: 1. The Ducks, Islanders and Devils were all created a long time ago, and this was back when the NHL wasn't as big as it was in terms of the number of teams. With fewer teams, there was more room for teams like the Kings and Rangers to make more money. Now there's 32 teams, and even though those teams are still making loads of money, they now have way more competition to deal with. 2. Geographical rights do exist, but I think teams can allow an additional team in their major area, but they will want compensation for it. IIRC the Ducks had to give the Kings additional money because they were setting up a team in the LA Metropolitan Area, and Disney paid up for it. Large market teams I think would be more inclined to let another team in their geographical area, because they can still make loads of money and their profit won't decrease. This is why Hamilton, for example, will never get an NHL team. While Toronto would certainly allow it considering that it won't affect them very much in terms of profits, Buffalo isn't as profitable and they don't want to lose money to a new team near them.

They should wear the jets jersey they own the right to

@@AmokCanuck Oh my God yess

@@AmokCanuck They no longer own the rights. Jets re-obtained the rights, hence the heritage classic Jersey’s they wear.

@@chrisallardfilms9001 did they acquire all of the old jerseys? I can't find any articles on it

@@AmokCanuck Gary Bettman explained in an interview on TSN, back when the Thrashers relocated to Winnipeg, that the NHL owns all the trademark rights to former and relocated teams. He then said if Winnipeg choose to have the name and trademarks back the NHL would very open to the idea. Weeks later the team was officially named the Winnipeg Jets with all the trademarks of the old Jets.

Houston >

I would hate Quebec City getting a team again, I'm a Habs fan. But I'd love Hartford getting the Whalers back.

@@neojay80 why would you Hate that?

@@user-vp5xf6fm5p I hated the Nordiques when they were here back in the day.

Totally agree makes no sense

This sounds very much like the NCAA, but what is the logic behind such a stupid rule? Why would they care who used the room when no one is there?

@@dalebaxter5920 something something can’t have grown men around children probably

@@dalebaxter5920 it's stopping professional sports money from directly entering college sports. I could see a lot of colleges cozying up to local pro teams if it meant they would foot the bill for amenities / equipment. And not all colleges have a team in the same city.

@@jameson1239 Nah, it's 100% about not allowing pro money into NCAA locker rooms. It has only been a little over a year since the NCAA allowed college players to do endorsements etc., it's still pretty much a good ol' boys club where the athletes are basically picking cotton for the plantation owners.

I don't think this is 100% accurate because the reason NHL visiting teams can't use the ASU visitor's locker room is because the Coyotes will be using it.

And isn't that what this is all in preparation for?

@@gretzkey66 Yeah but that also includes factors like A: Tempe actually agreeing to be their new home. B: Yotes management not screwing around when it comes to paying their bills on time and then building a team on the ice that is good. So there are factors but if all those factors play out then yes that is what this is all in preperation for all being well

@@Kinvarus1 Okay, word.

No. The team needs to get moved to Houston. It’s an embarrassment for the league.

@@LGD19985 Why would Houston be a better city?

You've got a top 5 sweater, no doubt.

Yeah it’s fun for when they win but right now they’re eating dirt for breakfast

I'm definitely going to buy their reverse retro or their original green space jersey. It's going to be a tough pick between the two

I think a team in any city in Canada over the US would be great and none better than Quebec. The problem is it is both a tiny TV market and it's French. The need to have French speaking coaches and a few players is hard enough for Montreal. To have two teams competing for these limited players would be unmanageable. Sadly I think Quebec is off the NHL radar even if (when?) Arizona fails. The NHL will go to Houston before it goes to Quebec or even Hartford. There are too many teams as it is. I hope the league stops expanding. The only way cities would get a team is if one fails in its current city. The quality of player is already too diluted.

@@BLAB-it5un No, the problem is that the NHL has been trying to get balanced conferences for years and they finally achieved that with the inclusion of Vegas and Seattle. 32 teams is also a perfect number for a league so further expansion seems unlikely at this point. Quebec needs a team to relocate... and it needs to be an eastern team. It's unfortunate, but geographical logistics are what's really holding back the return to Quebec City.

@@Statsy10 Bettman is what has been holding back Qc City from having a team. Nordiques coming back was in discussion long before Vegas and Seattle were even mentionned

@@BLAB-it5un Its not the first time i hear it from Anglophones they think speaking french is an handicap to play hockey lol. For Quebec city, hockey is like Islam for Arabs... Hockey for southwest USA is NOTHING not even their 5th favorite sport. They almost ruined hockey putting franchise in Florida, Carolina, Arizona. To comeback to your weak arguments, trust me theres litteraly hundreds if not more coach in Quebec that speak french and even english easily. Having french canadian players is really important but every teams has players from all around the world. Even old Nordiques had Stasny brothers from Slovakia and anglophone players like Dale Hunter.

@@TheBobville I said nothing about the need for the players to speak French though clearly this is an expectation in Montreal to have a handful of local French speaking players on its roster that no other team must factor into its plans. I specifically pointed to the desire in Quebec for the coaches and GM's to be French speakers and to have a hand full of players that are as well. I am not making a judgement on this. I am simply pointing out what the NHL and the TV execs know and say. Quebec is too small a market and the need to have French speaking coaches and some players is an extra challenge that none of the other potential cities have to grapple with. This doesn't mean Arizona deserves a team or can keep one. But the truth is Arizona is a far larger media market which is all that matters to the NHL at this point. Again, I have nothing against Quebec as a valid hockey city and sincerely hope they get another crack at the NHL. I am simply pointing out the commonly stated challenges to this happening and I would be shocked if the NHL returns there. French speaking aside, the main reason Quebec has virtually no chance is the media market is too small even though your point about non-hockey markets in the south is valid too. Houston, as big as a media market as it is, has not yet earned a team and the failure in Arizona is partially why. A big media market alone does not guarantee success but it has become a requirement in order for a city to qualify for a shot. Unfortunately a rabid but small hockey town has no chance against a large and mostly modest hockey city.

Lol coyotes fans exist?

*fan

@@pfrbrothers without them we wouldn’t have Auston Matthews

Mine goes out to the Vancouver fans 🤣

All 5 of them? Should have been moved to Quebec already.

Definitely. It's all stolen history

@@hudsongraham649 Exactly

Oh cry some more

@@lordrayden3045 At least Quebec City would have a sold out arena every game unlike the Homeless Coyotes.

I agree whole heartedly

Exactly. It's been over a quarter of a century, and this franchise has not once turned a profit. There is no capable business person that would continue to be in business this long when they're not making a profit. 26 years. The original Jets, the Nordiques, and the Whalers never got this chance. The Minnesota North Stars had the option to play in the relatively new Target Center, and the NHL allowed the owner to move the team to Dallas. But the Coyotes fail, and continue to lose money, and Bettman and the owners continue to bend over backwards to save them.

They knew enough to relocate your Jets here😂

@@AZ-lx9oq How many chances do you really need? Enough already! Quebec at least has fans. Hardly in your state!

Adding to that long list of embarrassment, the league literally owned and operated the team for 4 years between 09-13.

I just brought that up,the rich teams are helping the bail out this 3rd rate team,not enough funds are brought in just to cover the game.So guess who pays the salarys,not Arizona,it should be a loan at 3%.

NHL players really hate getting screwed over by Canadian taxes

I prefer for him to be gone health-wise than league-wise

Hockey isn’t that popular in the desert. No one gives a crap about Coyotes. They should have moved that loser team up to Seattle instead of making a new franchise.

But the Molson family has Bettman by the cojones.

he use to be a high up in the nba. he doesnt give a shit about hockey. every missed season and failed team comes back to his stupid ideas that tend to keep hockey on the lower side of popularity. hard to say if its sabotage or pure ignorance.

@@moody9442 yep, that's the other problem. He's just a New York lawyer. Ideally, a former player should be the commissioner.

I just did the same. Enjoying the content

This is the National league, bud. There’s nothing “really awesome” about it. Give your head a shake.

Getting to see McDavid come to town from “the nosebleeds” which is 5 rows up is such a cool experience. College games and the small arenas are always an awesome atmosphere too. I’m actually jealous I can’t see a game there

@@aggcavan943 I’m not arguing that it’s not an embarrassment to be in this situation, trust me the Coyotes have been going through this for a while now. All I’m saying is the experience is fun and more intimate.

@@SchruteFarms - I get what you’re saying. I mean Habs fans would absolutely love to see their team in that atmosphere of a small venue. It would be like seeing Metallica at a bar. But as whole having an NHL team in a small venue like this is horrible. Meanwhile there’s a 20,000 seat state of the art facility in Quebec and it’s just basically sitting there doing nothing. Well the juniors play there but yeah basically there for nothing.

I went to a Caps/Rangers game right after the Caps moved into their current arena(I believe is was called The MCI Center back then). I was up so high, that I was leaning forward and looking down at the action. Gretzky scored twice. I was so far from the action, I did not know who was in net. While I enjoyed the game, the experience at a smaller arena is much better.

Buy you a soda after the game?

The next question is, if the arena deal goes south, then what...

What is worse the Leafs have to help bank roll this fiasco,nope a lone at 3%.

@@craigslater2321 Off to Houston

Your best player is from ARIZONA and without the Coyotes would have never played hockey. So, as an Coyotes fan I’m tired of subsidizing your embarrassing franchise . With all your money and resources and you still can’t even sniff the cup. Maybe we should relocate the Leafs to Houston, there’s probably better players in that area than Canada too!😂

@@AZ-lx9oq Matthews is from California

They lose money at that level. Besides, every seat in the building is equivalent to a premium ticket in an NHL building.

At least when the Leafs sell tickets for that much, it's for a venue that can fit 20 000 people

@@roderickbawcutt To watch your precious Leafs lose to the Coyotes in that 20,000 seat majestic arena!😜

Very nice logos though

Yeah I thought it was straight up bullshit that they said they’re fanbase is too strong to move What fanbase? I have never met a single Arizona fan in my life on KZfaq or in person

Rather have a failing team to root for then no team

Lol not yet.

This, only actual fans AZ fans know this though. Not your typical NHL fans all over the world.

the people living arizona dont care and havnt for 25 years. way past time to drop betmans failed experiment he did for money, himself and nothing else.

Yep, but all the ignorant Canadians love to comment on a situation they know next to nothing about.

In three more games, the NHL locker rooms will be finished, that’s it.

Bettman is part owner?! How in the hell is that even possible?!

No offense but doing business in Canada sucks. Not to mention their main motivation is to expand the hockey market. Canada is already saturated.

because that shaking mess Gary still thinks this is somehow a good idea. He can’t own up to his mistakes, it gets more and more obvious every year that he hates Canadian teams. Which ironically are holding up the NHL, along with most original 12 teams.

There's nothing wrong with the Phoenix market. It's a gigantic city.

@@ecinaz there attendance record throughout their history would beg to differ

trying phoenix is good… however they’ve gone beyond trying. move them to a similar big southern market like houston. make sure they have good ownership

Winnipeg is a wasteland.

True, I was there

In an expanded format, which they would've missed in a normal year.

The NHL locker rooms will be done in three more home games.
