Welcome to (failed) TED Talk - TED is dead.

[JasonDemersWasOkay]

I felt so horrible for Leah last night too. You could tell she was on the verge of tears when talking about what this could mean for her job. And still the trolls laugh. I genuinely don’t know how I’ll be able to remain an nhl fan if the worst happens. I don’t want to associate with this shit anymore

 

[The Feckless Puck]

Man, the more I think about the TempeWins campaign, the angrier I get.

It's like Patrik Stefan's open-net miss come back to haunt us.

I suspect it better be fast as the NHLPA, who were already unhappy, I'm guessing are on Bettman hard. Plan B needs to be known in days and not weeks.

Uncle Gary: “You tell that son of a bitch no Coyote is ever coming to Houston”

Y’all better get the Seinfeld reference

 

[MIGs Dog]

I do, but let's go with Bill's sentiment.

If they announce relocation and play in Mullet Arena next season they will be lucky to get 2 thousand people on average night.Did you see attendance Oakland A's get those days?

 

[TheLegend]

two weeks

Ouch

Let's say 4 weeks....

That's when the NHL Draft is and they need to have some sort of a plan going forward by then.

Otherwise.... if you thought last night was hard.......

 

[The Feckless Puck]

I do, but let's go with Bill's sentiment.

Basically this confirms a lame duck season, and absolutely nothing else.

What Meruelo is going to want from any AZ-based Plan B is enough money from ancillary income to offset his hockey losses. TED was the only option that would have provided it. So - unless there is an actual honest-to-Gary plan in place and not just a bunch of vaporware hype - there is no long-term solution for us in this market.

That’s why there would be no announcement, only another red herring for fans to get excited about.

 

[Jagged Ice]

Without Keller? Lol

 

[BigJCaRoach]

Let’s fu**ing kick out at 2.9, eh?

 

[RABBIT]

I’m not falling for this shit again

I’ve accepted that they’re moving already

That’s no offense to Craig, I’m just not going there

[AZDesertKnight]

This will definitely put some heat to make a deal fast though. This isn’t going to be another 1-3 year process. Plan B has to happen fast. Period

 

[JasonDemersWasOkay]

Put a shovel in the ground somewhere or f*** off

Exactly. If plan B is an arena only option the team is no better off than it was in Glendale and we're just kicking the can farther down the road again.

 

[moosemeister]

I made this if any of y’all wanna use it to troll Canadians

Fiesta Mall Site or bust.

Only way Meruelo can keep his gaming license.

This team will not have an arena on tribe land.

Not sure I’m taking Reddit at face value. Haha.

Right on the 101&60 and just south of 202. Not bad.

Well they won't need to waste 9 months cleaning out a landfill.

 

[Mosby]

Today would be a perfect day for another Tempe garbage fire.

Only other site possible, since there's no land anywhere in Scottsdale, PV, or Chandler to be had.

Gilbert is too far east, and Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park is another tribe land issue (which won't happen).
