Some owners have expressed interest in acquiring an NHL franchise as the Coyotes move becomes clearer by the day.

There is a lot of ambiguity surrounding the Coyotes’ future, so it seems like a move is about to happen.

Houston and Quebec City are two potential relocation sites for the Coyotes. In addition to these two, numerous cities have expressed interest in hosting the Coyotes team.

In a tweet yesterday, one owner really showed what they want:

Although Salt Lake City is undoubtedly a long shot, they do have some merit. In Salt Lake City, the Utah Jazz play NBA basketball. Many NBA arenas may be renovated to become hockey rinks.

While Salt Lake City might improve the NHL’s relationship with southern sports, the club will have more challenges because they would have to share a venue with the Jazz, and it is exceedingly challenging to schedule games with the NBA and NHL teams that now share arenas.

I grew up playing Ball and Roller Hockey day and night somewhat religiously throughout elementary and middle school. The two don't compare though when I lace up the skates and hit the ice. I live and breathe hockey beyond the perspective of "it's just a game" and I will gladly talk hockey for hours with anyone. Hockey is more than just a lifestyle, it's a culture of passionate people who make memories every time the puck is dropped. Hockey has not only helped me get through some of the hardest times in life but has created some of the best memories to date. Want to talk hockey with me? Shoot me an email: iburdetskiy@hookedonhockey.com and let's talk some hockey!
