    The team in Arizona was always about getting a national TV contract and national advertisers. They know the market is shit locally. But where else are you going to put it? Albuquerque?

    Their team is super good
    Damn straight. a record of 2-8 and -37 in their last 10, it's clear they are just playing possum. No team can be THAT bad.

    ...can they?

    What's wrong with Houston? There has to be something.

    Nothing's wrong with Houston. The NHL would vastly prefer that a new franchise be put there rather than relocate an existing one.

    Yeah anyone who keeps complaining about relocating the Coyotes clearly doesn't get that. That's always been the goal and why the league has been steadfast on their refusal to move the team.

    What is the significance of Phoenix that they hold them there while they allow another team to stop for a cup of coffee in Atlanta and then move to Winnipeg?

    The problem is they built the Gila river arena on the wrong side of town. If it was in Scottsdale area they would be good. Took my dad 1.5 hours to drive from Scottsdale to the rink for a game, said he wouldn't bother again

    That’s on a good day lol. I’ve never been, but had friends that flew down to catch cheap flames games bitch about the drive. Worst I heard was 2.5 hours and missing first period.

    I pre-paid a limo for us and the mother fucker no-showed for the return trip so we got to pay another simple $90 to get back to Snottsdale.
    I arranged for a refund and made comments about Albanians in Serbia.

    If someone offered me a free flight to Barbados to be blown by Rihanna but the plane stopped in Phoenix, I wouldn't go.

    Please remind me how they decide whether it's Dallas or Nashville that comes over to the Pacific Division when the playoffs start and Vegas somehow fails to make it?

    Right? It's based on the strongest team facing the weakest team, right? That's the dominant factor, right?

    It's funny AF, with all the twitter wars and shit.

    What are people's thought on how the Vegas team is managed?! Going after all the big money Free agents and anyone is tradable.

    When the face of your franchise finds out via Twitter that he has been traded, there is a problem.

    When you build a successful team of outcasts and then proceed let them walk, ship them away or push them down the lineup due to over paid signings I'm not shocked that they kinda suck now.

    Eichel is a long way from hitting his stride and I think he's going to do tremendous things in Vegas. I don't think they have a lot to worry about, although a couple missteps this year have bitten them more severely than they should have.

    Eichel has come off as a complete douchebag through this whole thing.
