Alex Meruelo will have an exclusive five year window to bring a NHL Team back to Arizona. He does however need to hit certain benchmarks during that 5 year period to maintain that window Oh and congratulations to the Buffalo Sabres, they officially now have the worst owner in the NHL

This reduces the threat of a lawsuit against the league from Meruelo

From 32 Thoughts this AM. The Coyotes maybe pit on pause with Ryan Smith the new owner deciding what player contracts and team personnel he wants to bring to Utah, The name, logo and trademarks of the franchise will remain with old owner.

FWIW a lot of analytics staffs are moving away from NHLe as it has not been translating well across the various leagues

That was my response

4-2

COZENS

QUINN

Noah Östlund’s SHL Season ended today, he is eligible to report to the Amerks now. He was held out for injury from the game today though

This is the way. A Julio Jones Type Deal to get into the Top Ten for one of the big three WRs

Sigh

TUCH

I wonder if Luke Tuch would be target after August 15th assuming he doesn’t sign with Montreal

BENSON

He is still worth a NHL Contract though

It’s probably going to the roof and scoreboard though

That would be 9.6 million per team, Granato’s buyout is 3.8 million, just saying

It would make sense rather than having the team play in Mullett which the PA hates. The NHL doesn’t want to leave a Top Ten Television Market if they can find a suitable arena. This would also give other potential owners time to get there bid in order

I think there is a lot of pressure from the NHLPA with Mullet Arena not being up to par. This would be interesting

The NHL is working on two schedules for next season, one with the Coyotes in Arizona and the other them playing in Salt Lake City

He takes a timeout with 0.2 left? ***** off
