Glendale wants them out at seasons end, new arena will take a few years to build. Where will they play in the mean time? Pretty sure the team is gone.
The Phoenix market is the 12th largest TV market in the US. The NHL wants a presence in large markets like this. If they move into a better location and average say 15k a game that's still much better for the league exposure-wise compared to say 17k sold out arenas in Quebec City.
