I've been searching all over google for recent articles about this subject but the best I've found was from early March. Where is everyone getting their information from?
Do a google news search, rather than just a plain google search. For example:

True North just released a statement regarding the Coyotes' situation and their interest in an NHL team. Sounds pretty respectful to the NHL's relocation process, but definitely confirms that they are aware of the situation and ready to act if needed.

While we understand the current situation with the hockey team in Glendale is an uncertain one, we will continue to respect the efforts of all parties involved to maintain the Coyotes in Arizona, including those of the National Hockey League. As we have stated many times in the past, if that situation changes, we are certainly open to reviewing the opportunity with the NHL.
"We would further point out that while Mr. David Thomson is an equity investor in True North Sports & Entertainment, he does not take an active role in the day-to-day operations of the company. Mr. Thomson is however aware of the situation involving the National Hockey League in Glendale and is very supportive of True North’s efforts to return the NHL to Winnipeg, should the opportunity arise."
Can we at least take this as confirmation that True North is interested in acquiring an NHL team for Winnipeg? Or do we still want to debate that one?
