Ice Edge deal to purchase the Phoenix Coyotes has fallen through

Dolemite · 03-16-2010, 07:24 PM

Stay tuned. This probably means that the City of Glendale isn't budging on the lease.

PhoPhan · 03-16-2010, 07:35 PM

Can you cite anything?

PhoPhan · 03-16-2010, 07:46 PM

I'll give this another 20 minutes. If there's still not even a hint of source or substantiation, it's getting deleted.

SuperDave21 · 03-16-2010, 07:54 PM

O_o

I hope this isn't true...

Please provide source(s).

It's a good source from the local media. Again, it's just a rumor.

@azvibe rumors swirling that the deal in place to buy the coyotes has fallen through...

Any reason you couldn't just say this?

This has to be a lie!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that the OP's Twitter account? Wouldn't that just be a redundant post?

Ok, thank you for correcting me.

If this rumor is then unless someone else is willing to step in we might be in for another long court battle.
Who knows!

Wow this better be false, everyone has to work together here to make this deal possible, I mean no one side is going to get everything that they want, but dammit make this happen.

Brodie · 03-16-2010, 08:13 PM

So this was from the local Fox affiliate?

Stay tuned for what? Where is this coming from?

diceone · 03-16-2010, 08:14 PM

Sources? Articles besides speculation from your blog?

It's not even on the OP's blog.

Rumour: I think the milk in my Cereal is bad. Stay tuned. but seriously though, this would ruin my day if the deal fell through.

Either that or the NHL isn't willing to let IE have 5 out of market regular season games.
I'm not surprised if this fell through.

On Fox 10 just now Jude La Cava said that the Ice Edge bid is falling apart but did not go into specifics, he also mentioned that Bettman was demanding that the COG reconstruct the lease. He said something else but they cut him off after that.

Yote Devil · 03-16-2010, 08:38 PM

sweet

ssmatik · 03-16-2010, 08:48 PM

Let the conspiracy theories begin. If this is true, it brings to mind 2 immediate questions:

1. Was this the plan all along? (Oh well we tried)

2. What was that letter last week all about? (If this is true, Mr. Jones has quite the big set on him)

kingbrutis · 03-16-2010, 09:06 PM

Just horrible.

FutureGM97 · 03-16-2010, 09:07 PM

oh not good
