What to do with the board - Poll of Yotes fans.

[awfulwaffle]

Well, it's been a pleasure. Hockey was my favorite live sporting event. Unfortunate the way things have gone over the past few years. What could have been if Tempe voted in favor of the plan.

I do hope those of you living in AZ will get a team eventually. But it could be a long time now before that happens. I suspect that you won't get a sniff of the NHL until the suns lease is coming up for renewal. The easiest bet would be to work with the City of Phoenix on a new arena that can be utilized for both hockey and basketball. I just don't see someone coming in and trying to build their own arena and such like AM was trying to do.

Soooo....I'm guessing the F40 saga is over too. Bye folks; see you on the Utah HC pages. Or not, your choice.

 

[Edenjung]

Na I am done with NHL hockey.
Will come back for discussions in the International games thread. But besides that no interest.

 

[Prarievarg]

So it's decided? F40 is closing?

 

[RemoAZ]

I'll miss talking hockey with you guys. Thanks for allowing me to share all the memories with you.

I'll miss talking hockey with you guys. The Coyotes and forum=40 helped me feel like a proper Arizonan when I moved to Glendale in 2013, and it's been fun dreaming on Max Domi and Dylan Guenther while watching Andy Miele and Christian Fischer with y'all.

I'll see you guys on the Hurricanes or Stars or Panthers forum. Or somewhere. Eventually.

I'm still on @Summer Rose Discord. I also have the Utah forum bookmarked but with every passing moment I get less interested in it (no offense to you who post there).

If you don't patronize either of those areas, and we lose touch when F40 dies, then it's been great connecting with you all over the past nearly 20 years on HF.

A bunch of us who are now Utah fans will be at the Park Tavern at AZ Ice Gilbert to watch the draft on Friday. Those of you who are not going to become Utah fans should join us there if you can. It’ll be one last get together, anyway. You can boo the Utah team and make fun of us if you want. I’m sure we’ll be talking about all those crazy Yotes drafts in the past. And we’re all hopeful that the Yotes will return.

There's an archive section at the bottom that's where the board will end up, I dont think I'll lock it entirely but I don't expect much traffic

Probably Thursday

 

[AZDesertKnight]

Pull the plug!

 

[Bonsai Tree]

Suddenly so sad. I realize now how much my HF buddies mean to me. I may post on Utah just to visit my old friends.

Atlanta had a fan disbursal draft. @SniperHF that would be a nice send off, don’t you think?

I'm not a fan but if y'all are interested anyone can organize whatever, I'm just the janitor

I am about to become a UFA - call my agent!

So true. Part of my day was reserved for this forum. Might visit the Utah board and follow the team a little but my interest is not as it once was.

Just to follow up on this. Truly, happy to make this dual purpose. One last meet up for F40 and also the Utah HC draft party. It’s ok if the F40 folks want to call us names and boo our pick.

I'm already at the Craps table

Going to be very strange when this board is gone. I've saved up way too late reading through threads and posting throughout the 12 years I've been here. You guys helped pass the time when I was traveling for work (or any time really) and I can honestly say there were times I was excited to see what all my internet friends thought about breaking Yotes news. Sad to see it go, this was a pretty big part of my life at times, as strange as that is to say.

Me too. Everytime I picked up my phone, I came here first. Email, news and social sites always followed. I've been on hockey message boards for almost 25 years. I can't go without them and I'll eventually make my way over to Utah's boards once the gut punch pain departs.

 

[SniperHF]

It's been real (I'm not locking anything yet just moving it)

 

[Primary Assist]

Godspeed erstwhile Yote fans, best wishes to you all. Your board had a distinct and supportive culture when welcoming outside fans

 

[kicksavedave]

Good luck you you all, Coyotes fans. Love the logo and colors, hope it lives on someday.

Let my last message on forum 40 be: forever and always, f*** SLC

 

[MIGs Dog]

Is this thing on?

 

[Edenjung]

Seems like it.
We are officially in the underground now ^^
