The way the Arizona law is written, only teams competing at the top-level of their sport qualify for the sports gambling license, so he wouldn't be able to transfer it to the Roadrunners if the Coyotes left the state and the Roadrunners stayed in Tucson.
The stipulation is that the team needs to play in an arena above 10,000 seats.

The Coyotes actually have the law changed temporarily as they are obviously not playing in an arena that large for the next few years.

Look guys, I am beyond just blind homerism on this stuff, I have called the new arena odds to be probably 5% possible.. I'm ready for the team to leave if it does but i also will stand against bull$%^ fake news (again, I am not one of those fake news weirdos, this instance is probably the first time i've ever used that phrase) but it's true. Katie Strang has an axe to grind and will stop at nothing to try to embarass the team, and the team isn't perfect and is deserving of alot but this entire logo thing is a joke. It's flat out spun to embarass the team.
