I just highlighted the differences between the two locations.. why does Winnipeg have trouble attracting players and coaches when they have stability in all areas?
If the Coyotes have had the following since day 1:
-Stable ownership
-Modern Arena
-Solid fanbase
-Relative on ice success
attracting players and coaches would never be an issue... Wayne fata'ing Gretzky was the coach in Arizona FFS, albeit a bad one.
The reason? Location, location, location... The Winnipeg Jets are like a beautiful house built in the worst neighborhood in a city.
