MOVE THEM!!!
How can the rest of the owners be OK with this? There is money from other teams propping these guys up for years, now you have downgraded any revenue potential even more. When do the players say something! They are 50-50 supposedly. They are in debt to the owners thanks to Covid. This is money coming right out of their pockets.
What a joke.

So, assuming that Bettman is never moving them, I can see a longer benefit here. Games held on the campus are going to be attended by students. Fun atmosphere, but also potentially building a stronger fan base as they graduate over the next four years. In the meantime, maybe a new option emerges for an arena in a more logical location?
You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find, you can get a lottery pick.
