Jim Balsillie's relocation bid went forward today. The BalckBerry Knight told the NHL why it should let him buy and move the team.
Why shouldn't the Coyotes stay in Phoenix? $136 million in losses since the team left Winnipeg. Tepid fan interest and no other buyer who could keep the franchise going.
Hamilton advantages? Hockey mad market. Hockey mad owner. Prospective owner so rich he can weather any losses, however unlikely.

Robert, if you have anything constructive to say I for one am willing to listen. You however offer no information to support your deep seated dislike of Mr Blackberry. While I agree that a Hamilton NHL franchise is unlikely I really don't feel like listening to your unreasonable unfounded trash

An exercise in futility on the part of Balsillie. Good luck with that anti trust suit;...we will enjoy reading about it in the media for many years to come.
