BREAKING - Gary Bettman Bails Out The Arizona Coyotes Losing Their Team
Gary Bettman attended the Arizona Coyotes Tempe City Council meeting on Tuesday, November 30th.
The meeting was arguably the last bit of hope before the Coyotes would be forced to relocate to a different city, but of course, NHL commissioner Gary Bettman came to the rescue.
The Coyotes pitch consisted of a $2.1 billion dollar projected which included the following features:
-$2.1 Billion Project One of Largest Property Developments in Arizona's History
City Landfill to Landmark.
-City Landfill Site; ~1.5 million Tons of Trash Will Be Removed ($75 million cost)
-16,000+ seat Arena New Home of the Arizona Coyotes + World Class Entertainment Venue.
-Coyotes Practice Facility- Community Amenity Open to Public; HQ of Youth Hockey Program.
-''Restaurant Row'' and Retail Center Fine Dining and Boutique Shopping
Two Hotels- Boutique and Convention-Style Hotel.
-Private Medical Office Campus Targeted Tenancy- Health, Wellness, Physical Therapy Center.
-Up To 1,995 Residential Units - 24/7/365 Live-Work-Play Community
3,500 Person Theatre Flexible Space For Smaller Shows, Performances or Activations.
How did Gary Bettman save the Coyotes once again? The NHL, under Gary Bettman, made their own pitch to save the Coyotes, and Bettman promised A LOT.
''At the Tempe City Council meeting where a vote is expected on the Arizona Coyotes new arena/entertainment district tonight, Gary Bettman says the team is willing to sign a 30-year non-relocation agreement.''
Bettman promises the NHL will host an all-star game or a NHL draft to Tempe.

The City council voted 7-0 for this plan, of course Bettman did not have the final say, but we really question why Bettman is doing so much for a franchise that has been struggling financial and fan wise for years.
