cmm Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 If anyone is interested in watching the City Council meeting on Tuesday, it should be streamed here (I think it starts at 10 ET/7 AZ time):http://glendale-az.granicus.com/MediaPlayer.php?publish_id=4Because I'm a masochist, I've watched a few of these over the years. Expect a lot of talking before the big vote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 The Winnipeg Jets had a compensatory draft pick at #59 on Sunday because the Thrashers failed to sign their 2008 first-round pick, whom they drafted out of Junior B.

Could this be the end then? Because as I understand it if they haven't dropped the out clause by today by law they cannot vote on a plan w/o the clause today.

The_Admiral Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 Now it's coming out that Global Spectrum (a division of Comcast, the owner of the Flyers and the NHL's media overlord) is signing on to be Ice Edge's arena manager. And now it's clear why they were conspicuously uninvolved in the bidding for the job.

The_Admiral Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 And seriously, who uses a first-round pick on a guy in :censored:ing Junior B? Well, Don Waddell, I guess. The Jets inherited the most understaffed, underqualified hockey-ops department in the league. It could take another five years to turn that thing around, and they don't even seem like they're in a hurry.

Makes total sense they'd hang back if they were secretly in bed with RSE already. Wonder if that has any impact on the city's vote. They're paying RSE to pay someone else to run the arena is essentially what voting for RSE would come down to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
