I hate this. The Coyotes are a dumpster fire that the Flames have feasted on. A SLC based ownership group might actually put some money towards drafting, player development, having actual NHL players on their roster to get to cap floor, etc.. I was hoping Murelo and the league would keep this going indefinitely.
And as someone who is incredibly bitter about how greedy pro sports have become, the Coyotes have been one of my favourite punching bags. It has been genuinely hilarious to watch them play out of a college arena in order to chase gambling dollars and magically convert the 10th biggest US media market into hockey fans.
