sioux rube Posted June 22 Posted June 22 McDavid without a goal or a shot on net. He’s obviously the best player in the world but it is a team game and they proved that tonight 1 Quote

So, Smith Entertainment Group wanted an expansion team, but with the NHLPA and NHL not getting an answer from Alex Meruelo on when an arena would be built. That is when the NHL decided to have Meruelo sell the hockey operations and players to Ryan Smith (SEG), with Meruelo keeping the Coyotes intellectual property (name and history), the AHL team and a 5 year exclusive window to bring back the Coyotes. The NHL treated the Utah move as an expansion team just without the draft. Meruelo who could have had this all started if he worked with ASU on the old golf course across from Tempe Market place or with the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community (they own Talking Stick Resort and everything along the 101 north of the Salt River to North Scottsdale). He won't work with ASU because he can't have a sportsbook there and with the tribe, he can't have the housing and sports book on their land. With the land they were trying to get in the auction it had to be rezoned which was brought up by the PHNX Coyotes guys in May saying, "there needs to be a special use permit for an arena." The original plan for that land was to build a hockey (and basketball or volleyball) complex that would have an arena around 3,000 to 7,000 seats. He wants to get the area to be a "Theme Park" district, so he doesn't have to pay taxes and the Pheonix Mayor said no. Alex Meruelo is basically an incompetent owner who just blames everyone for not being prepared from the Tempe vote to not having a lawyer who specializes in rezoning. Oh, he still hasn't started the arena he was going to build for the University of Nevada. Edit: I also forgot to mention that Meruelo has until December 2027 to let the NHL know he is bringing the team back and not really 5 years. So, he has to have a half-built arena, pay the $1 billion to activate the team, and give 18 months' notice to the NHL. 1 Quote
sioux rube Posted June 24 Posted June 24 It will be all for big if the Oilers don’t finish it off tonight. This has no doubt been one of the craziest finals in a long time. Oilers were dead in the water after game 3 and now it appears the Panthers are. Hoping it goes overtime tonight. That would be fitting Quote

sioux rube Posted June 25 Posted June 25 Very entertaining 20. I’d give the edge to Florida. McDavid no factor at all. Expect that to change. 1-1 after 1 Quote
cberkas Posted June 25 Author Posted June 25 I still believe you break a stick in your zone just get to the bench and get a new one Quote
cberkas Posted June 25 Author Posted June 25 Congratulation Florida you won your 1st Stanley Cup and made it the most rememberable one. 2-1 FLA 1 Quote
SIOUXFAN97 Posted June 25 Posted June 25 wow.....the oilers just stood around those last 90 seconds..... should've pulled skinner with 2:30 when they were buzzing in the o zone..... unbelievable last 90 seconds....oilers were spectators. Quote
tnt Posted June 25 Posted June 25 Florida lucky the puck didn’t come off the wall in the last dozen seconds, as Edmonton had guys all alone in front of the net. I thought that only happened at lower levels of hockey. Quote
cberkas Posted June 25 Author Posted June 25 Missing 4 open nets and still won. Note to other teams don't have Corry Perry on your team if you want the Cup. 1 Quote
