Really interesting stuff coming out of Phoenix... Providing all works out and they stay, they'll soon change name to "Arizona Coyotes"

This has been talked about for many years now. Ever since the Coyotes moved from Phoenix to Glendale. In that respect it only makes sense.

To think that this could be 100% resolved within a month and we still won't be watching the NHL. Jamison is investing in a sinking ship in more ways than one. I really hope a new league rises from the NHL's ashes in a year or two.

Dreaming aside; I like the idea. Cheesy to rebrand, but if it's going to be a solid new ownership might as well get a jumpstart and start anew.

The name change is not going to improve attendance , they will still be in Glendale ..

But at least they don't have to live in Arizona, so it can't be that bad.

Seriously, the Coyotes don't have long to go and if it weren't for Buttman they'd be gone already because Arizona sucks a fat one and can't support an NHL team.

No problem!

Chicago found a way to do it with the Cubs and White Sox, so I'm sure Arizona, Tuscon, Phoenix, Tempe, and Scottsdale can all find a way when they all get expansion teams!

Actually those thousands of Quebecers are busy supporting there local team the Quebec Ramparts of the QMJHL who draw almost 11'000 per home game and have the highest attendance in Canadian Junior Hockey. Pretty pathetic when a Junior team draws almost as much as the Coyotes an NHL team.
