| Goodbye Coyotes. |
Go to Google. Type in Phoe. The first thing you will see: Phoenix Coyotes. But will this be the case, say, 2 weeks from now?
The Coyotes have had a, to say the least, a bumpy 16 years in the NHL. Lack of fans, and very poor performances on ice have definitely had a big impact when the team filed for bankruptcy in 2009. With no buyers, the team was bought by the NHL. Jim Ballsille, CEO of Research In Motion, tried buying the team and relocating it to Hamilton, Ontario. The NHL did not approve. But why? More people can fill Copps Coliseum then there are people who know Hockey exist in the desert. Canada only has 6 NHL teams, and 5 in the AHL. Isn’t Hockey a Canadian Sport? Guess not. Hockey can’t survive in Atlanta, Phoenix, Columbus, Florida and New York (ISLANDERS). So why not move a team back to Canada? In what world would hockey survive in a place that isn’t cold enough to have Ice in the first place? Why take it away from Winnipeg? Wake up Bettman! THE TIME IS NOW!!!! Actually, the time should have never came, Hockey belongs in the NHL, NOT IN AN AREA THAT DOESN’T EVEN GO BELOW FREEZING POINT!!!

If the Jets are not back in Canada next year, Bettman, I want you fired.
Haven't you heard??
