I've found some information.

At a council workshop last week, Deputy City Manager Jim Colson said a city-commissioned analysis by TL Hocking & Associates projected Glendale could expect to bring in an average of $15.7 million annually over a 20-year lease with Jamison and $6.5 million without the Coyotes.
If that's the case, than they are losing 1.3M per year with the Coyotes and would earn $6.5 without. This still doesn't take into account their mortgage payments for the arena or the loss in sales taxes for the area.
