Every Hawks fan on earth was adamant that this would not happen, kinda funny it did.

So we couldn't get the deal done with the Canucks who ended up wanting a 2nd, 3rd, and 7th for Beiksa and Lack, but we will give up a possible lottery 1st + prospect in the first year of a much more valued lottery pick for a goalie arguably no better than Lack...

Bieksa was house shopping in SJ, how did Wilson not make that trade happen...?

Did July 1 become another fools day?  Or could this be real?

Sin City is getting hockey, two sources close to the situation told The Post.

The NHL is arranging the sale of the Arizona Coyotes to billionaire William Foley who will move the team to Las Vegas giving it its first major professional franchise, one source said.

?Las Vegas has reached 10,000 season ticket deposits,? enough to justify a franchise, the other source said.

Foley said in January that he needed 10,000 ticket deposits to get an NHL team.

Foley will move them for the 2016-17 season, the source said. The Post last year was the first to report Foley was backing a Vegas franchise.

MGM Resorts and arena operator AEG are building a 20,000 seat hockey-ready arena in Las Vegas that is slated to open in spring 2016.

A Coyotes spokesman said, ?The Coyotes are committed to playing in Arizona.? When asked for how long, the spokesman reiterated it was committed to playing in Arizona. ?Period.? Arizona last year ranked 28th in attendance.

Meanwhile, the City Council in Glendale, Ariz., last month voted to terminate its lease agreement that expires in 2028 that has the city paying the team $15 million a year for a share of revenue.

The NHL is also eyeing expansion franchises in the Toronto and Seattle areas for the 2017-18 season, a source said.

The NHL announced it was accepting applications for expansion franchises from July 6 until Aug. 10.

Former Bauer Hockey Chairman Graeme Roustan is the lead person putting together a Toronto-area expansion team bid.

The NHL denied the story.

Foley and Roustan did not return calls.
Unabashed positron.  Blue koolaid in my fridge.  I wear my blue sunglasses at night.  Homer, d'oh.

Because lately Doug Wilson has been slightly incompetent. Aside from locking up Martin Jones. Sorry, Colton, I know you're a SJ fan/  ;D

The league is full-on deny and damage control mode because of this rumour about the Coyotes getting moved.

I won't believe it until it happens but I wouldn't be surprised if it did.

Jockitch

Kessel trade is a super dump for the Penguins........... his potential goal output just jumped significantly for Hockey Pools
The Leafs will be pushing for a high Draft choice position in next years draft, not getting to the playoffs any time soon...... YAY !!
