from @rocandmanuch
The interested buy is a former West coast NHL exec and has multiple investors.

Obviously Darryl Sutter has mortgaged his ranch to buy the Coyotes.

Owning a ranch myself, this is probably the case. Cattle prices are high - good time to buy an NHL franchise. The thought has crossed my mind a few times.

Do you ever get tired of getting your hopes raised and then crushed?

If some guy from the West Coast has $175 million to flush down the toilet now - and another $300-odd million to do likewise with over the next seven years - then more power to him.
The Phoenix Coyotes are a moribund franchise and will continue to be as long as the team is in Glendale. Doesn't matter how rich the owner is, doesn't matter which players choose to sign there - nobody cares, has ever cared, or will ever care about the Coyotes in Phoenix. The franchise quite simply should never have been allowed to move there, and the fact that it did speaks volumes about the so-called "due diligence" that the NHL supposedly does when looking to admit new owners and locales.

Who would offer to lose money every year on a 7 year commitment?

This is great news - and when does Ashton Kutcher poke his head into the Glendale city council's chambers and yell "YOU JUST GOT PUNK'D"?

Hold out for a better team.... This reminds me of that simpsons episode where Homer became the mayor of new springfield and was offered the arizona cardinals.

The Coyotes have had more "tomorrows" than Annie.
