I do think it's time for the Yotes to go. I know they team has made mistakes, moving locations was 1 but it's been 27 yrs and they still don't have a big enough fan base to make it remotely operable. No one can fault the NHL for not giving it a serious try.

In big part because I think it's funny how weird so many Canadians get about a team they don't care about, I really hope that they find a way to stay in Arizona - just to irritate people for another couple decades.

I am looking for the NHL to have franchises who help the league continue to grow in revenue so the cap goes up. Higher cap means you can keep more of your good players. I am not looking for teams to be laughing stocks of the league, drag the league down all so some people can laugh at it.

Counter-point - a well-run club with deep pockets and lots of financial success means that you have one more team that is a true competitor for players from a free agency and trade perspective.
Having a team that's a perpetual tire fire means A) players aren't excited to go there and B) the team will struggle to pay big salaries for top stars. They create a nice little feeder system where they can get and develop some players, but ultimately can't hold on to them when they reach free agency, giving us more options.
I mean, who wants more competent, competitive teams? It's bad enough that in our division we have two expansion teams who have decided to just try to be good from early on, rather than the old model of sucking for a decade or two before they win their first playoff series. Do we really need to see the Coyotes get capably managed too? Sounds terrible to me.
