BREAKING: Gary Bettman will announce the relocation of the Coyotes out of Arizona in the coming days?
For the past few hours, Frank Seravalli (DailyFaceoff) has been on this big case and revealed that Gary Bettman is preparing to make a major announcement about the future of the Coyotes in Arizona.
It would happen in 2-3 days.
And in the last few minutes, the renowned Elliotte Friedman (Sportsnet) has added a huge layer.
IF WE BELIEVE ELLIOTTE FRIEDMAN, IT WOULD BE THE END FOR THE COYOTES IN ARIZONA - DLC
Yes, it's big.
As reported by Marc-Olivier Cook, "that's it, the Coyotes could finally leave the desert, if we believe the most recent comments from Elliotte Friedman."
The Sportsnet informant seems to confirm Seravalli's words:
"They will begin the process of selling the team or the NHL will take over the team to sell it to someone." - Elliotte Friedman
And this time, the team will probably not be sold to owners who will keep the franchise in Arizona. Finally!
So this will be a huge case to watch in the coming hours.
Small prediction: don't be surprised if Gary Bettman announces as early as this Saturday that the Coyotes will move to Salt Lake City.
Informant Kevin Weekes also piqued curiosity by posting the following photo:
No, it's not a coincidence.
"If Salt Lake City is truly a target for the NHL, we can stop suggesting Québec City is too small of a market to sustain a team. QC has more than 2x the population, and the metro population is similar.
That only leaves one or two reasons why the NHL would avoid Québec City." - Marc Dumont, making a good point here
