ESPN.com reports that City of Glendale has Approved Ice Edge and Reinsdorf Proposals
As the title says. ESPN.com is saying that the City of Glendale has accepted both proposals that the two groups put before them. So what does that mean? ESPN doesn't really say. In the article linked here they literally have one sentence and then continue with the whole history of what's happened before with no more detail on next steps or anything else. Basically we're going to have to wait for some network or reporter that cares more than ESPN about hockey to find out.
Here's what we can assume from information that everyone had earlier:
First the proposals will have to go in front of the City Council in an open meeting so that they can be voted upon. This will likely happen in the next couple of weeks. They could again approve both offers which would give the NHL leeway to choose either offer. So does that mean everything is finished and tied up in a little bow? No, but it does mean that whatever the two proposals were looking for, Glendale found a way to give them what they needed.
It's far from being finished, but it's a good step on the way to completing this thing and shutting the haters up.
If anyone else has insight as to what's next I'm all ears.

is we will probably have to wait from an outside the valley news source too.
Anyone who attempts to generate random numbers by deterministic means is, of course, living in a state of sin.

Exactly.
Which is sad. Mostly because I don’t have the time and or the sources to find out.

There are two coyotes inside every fan, a good one and a bad one, so which coyote do you feed?
Gotta risk it to get the biscuit!
Hey April Fools
The Coyotes are going back to Winnipeg, and Balsillie is gonna own the team, and Edmonton is making it into the playoffs!

Excellent.....
Keeping the Coyotes in AZ is the best thing for the team and for hockey.
One of the most common arguments I hear and gets me the most pissed off is the, “Hockey belongs in traditional markets”. Traditional markets are those where there’s ice on some pond for 4 months a year. Somehow they feel they are entitled to having their own team for each different city in the NE and parts of Canada.
That’s just wrong. For hockey to thrive it must grow. For hockey to grow, it must tap new markets. Yeah, it takes time and commitment (and an owner who is into hockey more than just a way to make money – yes make money but being greedy is not the way to go) for a sport to grow in an area.
So to the Coyote fans from a fan of another “non-traditional” team, the Carolina Hurricanes, keep the faith and tell those who say, “You don’t deserve a NHL team, we/some place in the NE/Canada do”, ask them if they want cheese with their wine.
OBTW, the Yotes are my team in the West.
If the guys and gals who brought you the financial meltdown deserve big bonuses, where do I sign up?
