Ha. Anyone here who actually thinks this thing is coming close to an end must be really new.

The Phoenix Coyotes saga ending or L.A. getting an NFL team. What are the odds? :)

I'll take sk8erboi/Nick/MBisordi becoming every woman's dream date over either of those.

That the NHL wants it sooner could be a sign how close this is to ending. If Glendale won't vote to change that $5 million to $16 million then the NHL will need as much time as possible to move them to Quebec or Seattle or wherever.

Lets hope Glendale sticks to their guns. If they do this should be the end (and it would be in any sane or rational league (basically any league outside the GDNHL))

How about Surprise? Or Chandler? Mesa? We still have a lot of options around Phoenix to try!

To do what, build a new arena? Not likely less than a decade after Jobbing opened. While it's different cities they also don't exist in a vacuum.

Besides, Surprise? You think they have "access" and "distance" issues now... try putting the team in Surprise.

I'd count on the Coyotes relocating to Quebec, Seattle, Hartford and Des Moines, all in that particular order, before the NFL has a team in Los Angeles.

From the conspiracy theory department: Quebecor just hired the Habs' former VP for operations who ran the Forum and Bell Centre to head up their Sports and Entertainment division.

So, calling four straight meetings while Glendale's City Council walked through a revolving door to circumvent quorum got noticed.

I'd count on the Coyotes relocating to Quebec, Seattle, Hartford and Des Moines, all in that particular order, before the NFL has a 2nd team in Los Angeles.

What about Salt Lake City, Kansas City, London (ON), London (GB), Paris, Hamilton, Markham, and ending in Chandler?

Also, fixed.

2nd team in Los Angeles? Los Angeles has already had 2 NFL teams.

I know I'm jumping into this thread way late but the 1960 L.A. Chargers shan't be forgotten about (if you're counting AFL teams as well).

Move the Suns to Glendale to have a 41-game tenant there that sports fans would actually pay full price to see. Move the NHL team out of Glendale. Problem solved. If America West Arena and Downtown Phoenix don't like it, tough noogies.

Sounds to me like they really need Glendale to up their 5 million a year offer to the desired 16 to make it get anywhere close to penciling out. Hopefully Glendale holds firm since their own analysis showed they'd lose less money minus the team than by acceding to the NHL's demands.

Not sure if people want to see the Suns now. They're a joke; even the Kings finished above them.

After these last couple of years? Phoenix is a basketball city, first and foremost, and those fans have been through worse than this current Suns slump (the 1987 cocaine-possession arrests of some of their players).
