Emily Kaplan: Coyotes players left meeting with GM thinking they’re moving to Utah | NHL on ESPN 

I like that they're leaving the Yotes name, brand, and history in Arizona. Utah/SLC is going to be a great market for the NHL, whereas there was absolutely no chance the Coyotes franchise, in its current form, would ever survive in the desert. However, keeps the door open for a return if there is a better ownership group, better arena, and better environment for the fanbase to grow.

Why did they show footage of Hartford leaving and not the Winnipeg Jets originally leaving for Phoenix?

Thinking? They are

This is the best thing that could possibly happen to the Coyotes franchise. Salt Lake City will be a positive for the NHL....

I've lived in Utah now for 5 years. We deserve an NHL team. Arizona fans didn't show up to their games for over 20 years and now they're upset? Salt Lake City loves the Utah Jazz, and we'll pack the arena for our new NHL team as well

As a Winnipegger it’s hard to have any sympathy for this. Phoenix was given waaaayyyy too many second chances.

The NHL will only put up with this for so long! Its best for the team to relocate.

As a flames fan it’s always exciting seeing a new city involved I hope it goes well

Brother they are moving not “thinking of moving”

Wtf does Hartford have anything to do with this ? The Phoenix/Arizona Coyotes came from WINNIPEG

A's should take a lesson from the Coyotes and pull the rug out from people immediately instead of dragging it out over 5 years

'thinking they are moving...' Honey they have one foot out the door already. The official announcement comes on the 17th. The day of yotes final home game ever at mullett vs. oil. And anyone who thinks merulo is gonna follow up on his promise to win land bid, build an arena (with his own $$$'s) is fkn nuts. Merulo will wait till things blow over, cancel the land bid, and go away thanking nhl for his $ billion + $750 mill. profit for a team worth barely $330 mil. Kaplan should find bettman or merulo and ask them who is paying the last year of mullett three year lease?

That was the most useless coverage of the subject I have seen expected alot more from something NHL branded

Bedsy&Celly 🚨🚨Gonna be electric 🚨🚨

Make it Los Angeles, Rams, then the St. Louis Rams and the Anaheim, Rams, and now the Los Angeles, Rams

Very exciting

Hopefully, they change to a better logo.

If a new team comes back to Phoenix, WE DON'T WANT MUERELO AS OWNER

They can't retire that katichyna

I doubt he will spends his cash from the sale on anyone but his selfish self ! Say goodbye to the NHL in Arizona 👋

Just more lies by Alex Meruelo. He'll be a NO SHOW at the auction. Fans in Arizona have been lies to from the beginning. Meruelo might as well pack his money bags and go back to Reno. HE'S FINISHED IN THE DESERT! The fans are tired of his BULLSHIT!😢 I hope the fans will love our players and support the team. These guys play their hearts every time they hit the ice. Good luck boys!

Facts

Murelo can't keep a team together so lets just encourage him to try again?! LOL

The AHL is all they're gonna have in the future.

Why would you have a hockey team in Arizona to begin with?

Save the Coyotes and Utah get its own team, just like the Sacramento A's

Thanks for the crack reporting toots

Arizona was always a terrible Nhl city, they had 30 years and blew it. The city turned that team down on arena deals too many times, hope to never see another Nhl team in Phoenix. Give them an ECHL team, see if they can handle that.

Panarin is better than Ovechkin

Gary Bettman's a joke of a commissioner. To Salt Lake City, where they don't have an NHL-ready rink. What a farce.

Do they remain the Coyotes I wonder 🤔

please no expansion

whatever any of you are thinking, you're wrong. What this is: the NHL fkd up the entire SW market by not delivering a winner to Phoenix. The worst offense was the thing you should never do unless you want us to turn off- dont make us lose to LA via dirty players who dont get calls. And that's exactly what happened to the only cup run we had that was ruined by penalizing the yotes and not the dustin browns. And then Firrst overall aver First overall going to a canadian darling or original 6 team. 100% bullsht and every hockey fan in Phoenix knows it. The reason all this happened is because the NHL was not good enough to the Phoenix (and it's Phoenix, not AZ) fans by cheating us out of top prospects, allowing Matthews and others to go to 'good old boys clubs', and allowing dirty players to instigate unfair calls against us. You think otherwise? Let me show you how wrong you are as they pack their bags. Next time you come to a megalopolous like Phoenix, you BETTER deliver a WINNER, and a BIG winner, otherwise, gtfo and dont come back.

So I guess the new arena deal didn’t go through they figured that it is a waste of time and taxpayers money 💰

Well i judt got into hockey. And the coyotes are dogshit. So i guess imma become a coyotes fan or whateve there renamed(im in san diego) i also have flyer blood in me so i guess both. Lolol
