Looks like 9 different ownership groups, although sometimes individual owners held over from one group to the next: https://www.retroseasons.com/teams/a...istory/owners/

While there are indeed Coyotes in Utah, I'd think they'd prefer a whole new concept.
Well you sure can’t have a kachina motif in Utah.

That's how I feel too. They need a clean slate. It is difficult to get fans emotionally invested in a team when there are constant worries about arenas and whether they will have to relocate. It just creates a cycle of public disengagement. Constant talk of relocation makes the public apathetic, and when the public is apathetic, there isn't going to being the political will there to get land and arena deals done.

I don't think there's anything to get done. Taxpayers have no appetite to pay for another entertainment district and will fight it. A lot of NIMBY in Phoenix right now.

They were supposed to make an announcement of some form tonight.

Instead, they made an announcement about a future announcement.

Whoever is running their Comms department is a bozo.

Is there enough gold for both them and Vegas?

If both teams played with shiny helmets, would it cause the cameras to short-circuit? Or would it be more like crossing the particle beams in Ghostbusters, and end all life as we know it?
