Re: Coyotes relocating to Salt Lake City
I feel really bad for the fans in Arizona as well as the employees of the Coyotes and the players, plus the youth hockey organizations in Arizona that the Coyotes did great work supporting (remember, without the Coyotes there'd be no Austin Matthews flirting with a 70 goal season). And if the reports that Meruelo will get an expansion franchise in the next few years are true, I hope the fans in Arizona boycott the team, because rewarding this douchebag for the way he's treated everyone involved just leaves an awful taste in the mouth.
On the other hand, as a Coyotes fan who has no particular attachment to Phoenix/Arizona (I was a fan of the Jets 1.0 and followed the team when they relocated)... I'm actually kind of excited about the move. Ryan Smith is super-rich and combine that with the Coyotes stockpile of picks and prospects and this is a team that could get real good, real fast.
