Realistically, the relationship with Glendale was cooked with Ice Edge, any idea that there would be a compromise or that somehow AM could charm Glendale into cooperation is naive. I understand that for Glendale stopping a new arena was huge, the minute a brand new arena is built, it makes it harder to compete for everything. Glendale Arena is a very nice arena located far away from where many STH live. (FWIW, I live in South Phoenix - and it isn't too bad for me, but when I lived downtown, it was 90 minutes from the parking garage to the arena). I can blame everyone for a lot, but I can't blame AM for this relationship. Glendale had all the cards, and they were never going to allow the Coyotes to set up another arena. They are vastly better off with the Coyotes out of town than in a different arena in the Phoenix Area.
