Utah has the Jazz and that’s freaking it. I’ve never been but would 1000% make my way out there for a game if they had an NHL team.
Isn’t the main issue with the Coyotes the location of the rink? It’s in the middle of nowhere I thought. Well, their old rink since they have to play in a college rink now. Ugh, what a catastrophe. Bettman’s baby seems to be a huge fail.
Three words: bountiful Utah tourism.
It’s pretty landscape; maybe a little hockey and tolerance to heathen atheist puck hounds like myself could get things “turnt” for them in a tourism way. It just makes sense.
If it were up to me, they’d either move the Coyotes to Utah, or add two teams, being SLC and QC. No offense to Florida; but their tax laws and Tkachuk f***ed progress over. They’d be fine with Tampa as “Florida’s Team.”
This would be easier if FLA moved to QC and ARI moved to SLC. No one could say that the math isn’t cleaner. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
