The National Hockey League (NHL) Commissioner, Gary Bettman, was supposed to hold a press conference in Tempe, Arizona, but the location was vandalized with the phrase "VOTE NO" in multiple areas. This is a concerning situation that highlights the tension between the cities of Tempe and Phoenix over the proposal to build a new arena for the Coyotes in Tempe.
The city of Phoenix has expressed their opposition to the proposal, and Tempe has responded with legal action. The vandalism incident adds a new layer of complexity to an already interesting situation.
