Can we all agree that Goldwater has a higher agenda here? They keep bringing up taxpayers want to know this/that/other but taxpayer support for GWI from polls i've seen are around 20% - Everyone I talk to, and regardless of what you all think about hockey in Phoenix.. this is a much talked about issue at work, at restaraunts, coffee shops, what have you. People KNOW that Westgate and Glendale are ****ed if the team leaves. Which is why people in Winnipeg should not get their hopes up. Glendale cannot afford to lose this team as that would be the worst of the two Bad options for them and i've always said they don't have a good option. They have Bad and Worse.

Keeping the team in Glendale may well be the best for the city but it is irrelevant to the law, and everything the city has done suggests that even they know they are breaking the law with this, they already own the parking rights, hell they own the whole thing, the amount they are paying Hulsizer to manage the building is 5 times higher than market rate etc.
The city has been fudging the books, hiding documents and generally trying to pull a fast one on its own citizens, if I was you I would ignore the team for a moment and consider what a bunch of scumbags you have in office giving your money away right now.
The only way the team is staying in Glendale is if Hulsizer just ponies up his own money for it which, frankly, is the way it should be.
