The NHL probably won’t lower it though. They told the owners they wouldn’t lose money on the deal buying them out of bankruptcy. They paid $170mil and that’s what they want for it. No matter what you believe if the team can survive there or not, losing money every year and attendance not being great is a hard sell. Whether you can make it viable in the future doesn’t matter in the present. People are looking at what it’s done.

I would have thought that a multiple media mogul like Jenna would have boatloads of cash by now.

Maybe he could get the city of Glendale to front him the money? They seem to have no concept of good deals.

The City of Glendale reminds me of the news stories you see where some unsuspecting senior gets an email that they won the Jamaican lottery and in order to claim their prize they need to send money to pay the taxes.

If that happens we’ll be reading accurate stories about how the team is still bleeding money because having an actual owner makes no difference. Just because Bettman wants a team in a large market and is stubborn doesn’t mean he should let it bleed dry.

Blah blah blah. Another story made up by the media as usual. What will you write about when the deal is done and the Coyotes are STILL in AZ? O yeah how they can’t make it in AZ. Again Blah blah blah.
