Like I mentioned a page ago, pretty sure this goes through and Coyote players and fans get to go through this one more year.
In the Atlanta thread there is discussion that the possibility that Atlanta could still move to Winnipeg this summer, that in fact this delay could be part of the plan as Phoenix is in slightly less trouble than Atlanta (if you can believe it!)
Either way, Winnipeg gets their team this year or next. That's not what concerns me the most. It still concerns me that the league is willing to sacrifice league gate revenues (in a uncertain economic time) to try and hit a ball out of the park they've been swinging at for 40 years or so.
Just doesn't seem like good business. Kinda like politics it would seem like now would be a good time to solidify your base, AND THEN expand.
