3) When Will Then Be Now? Winnipeg has a breaking point and sources say that mark isn't far off as the city and True North await word from the National Hockey League as to what direction it intends to go with the Phoenix Coyotes.

True North has been incredibly patient, but doesn't want the waiting game they're involved in to drag on much longer. Sources say the league is well aware of Winnipeg's timing concerns, but the NHL remains committed to exhausting every conceivable option to keep the Coyotes in Glendale.

Winnipeg hopes to have an answer this week, or prior to next week's American Hockey League spring meeting, although historically, decisions on franchise locations and divisional adjustments can be made after the AHL's annual gathering so there's no real pressure for Winnipeg to declare the status of the Manitoba Moose for next season.
