Phoenix Coyotes most likely moving back to Winnipeg and lets hope its just the beginning

The Phoenix Coyotes deal to stay in the Phoenix with Matt Hulsizer and the City of Glendale given him something like 116 Mil to keep the team afloat has fallen apart especially because taxpayers watchdog Goldwater Institute. So today on the Fan 590 at the beginning of the war with TSN radio had Nick Kipros and Doug McLean said that right after the Coyotes get eliminated from the playoffs the NHL will announce that the Coyotes will be heading back to Winnipeg and turning back into a Jet. Bill Daily said after hearing this report "the league remains focused on completing a sale that would keep the team in Arizona" and that there is no timetable has been set on making a decision of if the Coyotes are moving back to Winnipeg.

The biggest problem with Winnipeg is that they need a new stadium and that there is no corporate money in Winnipeg but in Phoenix the only money they have is the NHL's money as the NHL somehow/someway is supporting the team which means the top teams like the Leafs, Bruins, Rangers, and Detroit are bascially taken out of pocket and will at some point say enough is enough because even though they all make buckets of money they will not like to be supporting worthless teams who can not even come close to making money or breaking even. So Winnipeg will fill the stands and will be able to get a lot closer to the cap floor without losing as much money and if there are less teams like the Coyotes because they are diffidently not the only one (Dallas Stars, Atlanta Thrashers, Florida Panthers, Tampa Bay Lightening, Carolina Hurricanes, and more) the league as a whole would be a lot stronger and the salary cap all in all would be higher so that there would be less players but they would make more money. Also NHL teams will be in places that love hockey like Saskatchewan and southern Ontario and it really is a pipe dream that the NHL will get a big bucks US broadcasting deal as it will never happen and if teams move out of the US there will still be plenty of US teams and cities that would love to be apart of the New Years Day Classic which is the only NHL hockey the US watches. So in the end the best idea is for the NHL to move a couple of teams to Canada and than fold maybe 6 teams at least to bring it to back to 24 teams and have like an original 6 division with Chicago, Detroit, Montreal, Boston, Toronto in one division.

Gary Bettman do the right thing and take hockey out of places that do not care for it
