There have been many unkind words for the Arizona Coyotes over the past fews days from analaysts and fans of the NHL, and you sometimes have to wonder if the team really gets it at all. The Coyotes has been ripped apart on Twitter by Insider Frank Seravalli after asking fans where they should build an arena.
Whatever you think of Seravalli as an insider, it's tough not to see his point on this one. The Coyotes were effectively booted from an arena in Glendale for an unpaid tax bill. After moving to a 5000 seat arena in Tempe, the team's proposal to build a new 16,000 seat stadium was given a thumbs down by those who voted in a recent plebiscite. Now, the team is publicly asking its fans where the Coyotes should play. It makes it look like they have no plan at all, which is likely accurate. It's also interesting to note that all four locations asked about in the poll are in Arizona. Moving to a place like Houston, Sacramento, or Salt Like City seems just as likely right now.
