Phoenix XCV: We Trust Gary Bettman

[SilverSeven]

Ken Jones calling out how all the fans there arent even from Glendale

 

[Victorious Secret]

Somehow the "Misconduct" jersey is the stupidest thing of the night.

Miss Conduct. I think shes on twitter. She writes in some blogs as well. Not as stupid, you've obviously just tuned in recently.

 

[Govment Cheese]

GO! Ken Jones

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Its this guy again. And this time he is bringing valid points.

 

[ponder719]

So when does Goldwater issue a statement?

T-minus 5... 4... 3...

 

[AndyCapp]

To be honest, I've seen more municipal leadership in a Saskatchewan RM.

Glendale is synonymous with hubris.

Enjoy your lack of civic services, Walmart Diplomats.

That's true, there is more to life than a hockey team. But I don't think it's for people who live miles away in different states/countries to decide if the city is on the verge of bankruptcy and unable to financially support the team or not. I can understand if you feel the team should move so it improves the lives of the people in that area assuming that the team won't ever become successful, but to come in here and outright root and cheer for the deal to be rejected is a little much.

That's the whole point of rooting for the deal to be rejected. The irresponsibility and complete skewing of priorities that's been demonstrated on the part of Glendale's council is honestly stupefying.

wow **** just got quiet. POPS GOING HAM

 

[pfp]

start the countdown to 2pm on July 8

 

[PrototypeX85]

This poor guy...

 

[Habs05]

With the money Glendale has spent, they could have owned the team and covered losses for 4-5 Years and now Glendale will bankrupt it self. Oh well, as long as Quebec City gets a team. **** Glendale and its fans, if we Canadians stopped supporting the NHL then we"d see more teams in Canada. This league is not getting a penny out me.

I fear Qc city won't get a team. Because of what happened tonight the 2 expansions will go to Seattle and another city in Ontario.

Old man bringing the heat

 

[HamiltonOHL]

so what the City gives 15 mill X 15 yrs for what im confused?

 

[Cullksinikers]

"You haven't won this thing yet."

 

[thiscalltoarms]

Apparently one citizen's life is less important than having a hockey team.

 

[Tramontane Sirocco]

well... I have a jersey to buy... I liked the red ones the best, well whatever the store has, as long as its small enough for me
all this talk about Phoenix makes me feel I should finish my nhl 97 season with them (go sega genesis, I hope you never break)

 

[Any Colour You Like]

This man brings up a fantastic point. He may be dying at the lectern, but his logic makes so many people think twice.

 

[member 151739]

Congratulations Coyotes and Coyotes fans. It makes me happy that your team remains in the desert. MOD

 

[Canucks LB]

DAMN old man just went ham

 

[John McClane]

Brilliant. Just brilliant.

 

[MeticulouslyDishevel]

Caring more about a hockey team than a person's life. Goldwater coming.

 

[AndyCapp]

Bring it, Jones.

Kick some Hillbilly City Council Butt...

 

[Victorious Secret]

That guy just brought the thunder. Wow.

 

[guyincognito]

Because it's dragging down the league. Being from Winnipeg, I'm the last person even wanting to see a team relocate. But it is necessary in this specific scenario. The league revenue could be a big chunk more if not having to have dealt with this fiasco for the last 5 years.

What, 1%? Maybe pushing 1.5% if we get them somewhere where they revenue out $100M a year? It's not a big chunk of anything, if it was, it wouldn't continue.
