Denis De Belleval & Y-M-Deschenes have lost their cause at the Supreme Court against bill 204 & the management agreement of the arena!

One less roadblock for the return of the Nordiques!

My guess, JUNE 21st, 2012 as the day the Coyotes ceased to exist.

Sorry, but that is complete nonsense. There are whole myriad of reasons why laws passed by legislatures can and have been overturned by court challenges; Canadian history is full of such incidents.

Ok, fine, I'll add ''as long as it's constitutional'' to my statement. Ok?

Jees, I'm so tired with the planes! Things needs to derail in Glendale first! GB needs to say it's over in the desert before he flies in QC.

If the Yotes are moving this offseason, I'm inclined to agree with this. I just don't see the team moving after the draft for some reason.

It could really go either way at this point, tbqh. Either delayed into staying for at least another year (as I don't see the courts resolving this in favor of Glendale before the draft) or either the NHL or Jamison just give up and the league is forced to sell to the highest bidder.

I know this plane landed a few minutes ago but, for those future flights coming from Teterboro, we should send someone at the airport!

A small town in New Jersey outside NYC. That is where Bettman flys out of.

Not really. GB never said it was over in Atlanta. Instead he just popped up in Winnipeg to announce the sale of the team.

Yes, certainly; I just didn't want you (or others) to think that our legislators can just write up any laws they can think of without regard to existing law and jurisdiction.

Anyways, this is good news for QC even if it was expected.
