Coyote Tracks - Thursday June 17 Edition
Fairly sparse news day, no diatribe about rules changes...let's just be short and to the point today (i.e., it's late and I want to get some sleep before the early World Cup match - seriously, the World Cup is screwing up my sleep schedule).
Phoenix Coyotes bidder Ice Edge Holdings meets with NHL
Ice Edge says meeting was ''productive,'' but the group has not secured proof of financing yet although all signs indicate that they will meet their exclusivity deadline of Friday. Hopefully @IceEdgeDJ will give us a heads up when this happens, but if not, we'll report it as soon as we hear anything.
Phoenix Coyotes' Scottie Upshall excited about new season
The high-energy forward is back into full workouts after knee surgery and will be back on the ice soon. Very good news, particularly following his well-deserved raise.

A nice article about former Coyote Nick Boynton who went from Anaheim cast-off to Stanley Cup champion this year! Great job Nick!
After the jump, irresponsible mainstream journalism (that doesn't come from the G&M or WFP!), the SB Nation mock draft begins, Islanders make a play for increasing revenues (Ice Edge should take note), and more...

This is an interesting idea and one thatwe've heard talked about with the Coyotes' future owners needing to make extra revenue...it really only makes sense, and hopefully Ice Edge can parlay Jobing.com into some excess $$$$

Certainly it seems that no league has greater year-over-year turnover than the NHL...I expect this year to be no different, particularly in the Pacific...

Owners might be biggest opponent
Rumours swirling out of Toronto, that the owners aren’t all aboard Ice Edge and many are questiong why sell to owners who need to borrow large amounts of money. They would rather sell to an owner who isn’t borrowing money, rather using his own. Right now it’s about 60-40 against selling to Ice Edge.

Source? This is the type of rumor that just has nothing to it without knowing where it is coming from.

it was on the fan 960 this morning out of calgary
Who was on the fan 960 saying this? The owner of the Flames that was in the meeting? Gary Bettman? Bill Daly?
I’ve listened to the talk radio here and in Philly when I lived there and the accuracy is somewhere between jack and squat, generally…they are there to drive up ratings, not report news.

or...
some guy named Bubba….
I suspect that the owners will be happy to have the team owned by anyone – they’ll be as tired as the rest of us of this ongoing crap.

Garbage
The Canadian media has been tossing out this kind of garbage since Balsillie tried to poach the team.
