Frank Seravalli has just launched another huge scoop about the upcoming relocation of the Arizona Coyotes, through Gary Bettman.
See his post.
"BREAKING NEWS: Sources tell us that the Arizona Coyotes and Smith Entertainment Group have made significant progress in a deal to relocate the Coyotes to Salt Lake City, Utah.
Updated NHL memo from the governors today.
It's not settled yet. Many issues to resolve and many lawyers involved. A lot of work to do." - Frank Seravalli
This is a MASSIVE development. It seems that the transfer of the Coyotes to Salt Lake City is literally under negotiation.
Obviously, this is a huge deal, so there are several parameters to finalize, but it seems that the question is no longer "IF" the Coyotes will be moved, but "WHEN" they will be.
More and more, it seems that, next season, there will no longer be an NHL team in Arizona, and there will indeed be one in Salt Lake City.
The next few hours are likely to be very interesting in this case, which is developing very rapidly.
