Steve Ellman and his Glendale vanity project with Wayne Gretzky joining the ride. That's what destroyed the Coyotes. Arizona deserved better.

[@khristenarnold8gs2.]

just when the coyotes look like the west's team of the future, they leave. its very weird. utah is a great place for pro hockey, but once again quebec city is overlooked. houston and hartford need teams also.

[@edwardrosemond7169]

Been watching the Arizona Coyotes play since 2014-2015 when I was 1st watching the NHL!

[@thankyou4898]

This was a fantastic video. You did a great job with the history

[@thankyou4898]

Also I’ll be commenting on all your videos just to get more engagement coming! I love your channel ❤

[@AlyssaHope]

I really appreciate you! :)

[@nikehp99]

Wayne Gretzky going to LA was the worst thing that happened to the NHL. He made hockey popular in the west.

[@wholesomelunch6576]

I wish the yotes came to Hamilton, rename the team to fent pirates or something.

[@ChiTownCzech91]

Like fentanyl Pirates?😮

[@lukefrommacdonalds72]

Or y'know , Bulldogs?

[@airjordan1325]

As a Coyotes fan thank you for how you talked about this unfortunate event.

[@dnasty312]

Remember ESPN's _Top 5 Reasons You Can't Blame?_ I have a top five why you can't blame the fan base for the Coyotes leaving Arizona: 5. *PLAYOFFS* 4. *THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME?* 3. *UNSTABLE OWNERSHIP* 2. *THE NATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE* 1. *THEY SHOULD HAVE STAYED HOME (Winnipeg)*

As an Oilers fan I couldn't help but feel bad for Coyotes fans during that final game when cheering for my own team.

[@03focussvt943]

Youre part of the problem. Move back to Edmonton if its so "great".

[@SaveznaRepublikaJugoslavija]

the coyotes fans were out numbered in the stands...that was a pathetic look there are almost as many Oilers jerseys

[@matthewanderson9754]

Hell have you seen the seats filled in Hamilton!? Just for their minor league team!!! They would've done great there!!!!

[@nickb2912]

Hamilton won't get a team, the Leafs won't allow it

[@TheWatz05]

Bad ownership always hampered the team. This was a good overview of a situation that ultimately cost Arizona its first born trained and drafted player Josh Doan. Between that and them disrespecting Shane by leaving his banner screw the owners.

[@Thedude4777-gh1lj]

You know what else happened? The fans dressing up as empty seats for every youts game

[@christophermerlot3366]

Liquid IV? What other kind is there?

[@rickseiden1]

Hearing about how toxic the owner was, and how crappy it was playing in the tiny arena, I wonder how many players had them on their no trade list. Which led to me wondering, what NHL team is on more players' no trade list than any other?

[@sampicano]

probably Buffalo, Winnipeg, Edmonton, Ottawa, Calgary, Pittsburgh Also, Buffalo, Winnipeg, Edmonton, Ottawa, Calgary and Pittsburgh MAKE MORE MONEY FOR THE NHL THAN: - Tampa, Miami, Phoenix, Atlanta, Raleigh, Columbus, Anaheim... So, you can successful NHL franchises in hockey markets, or you can teams in Miami, Atlanta and Phoenix that CANNOT generate profit. Take a choice, I'd rather generate $5 million dollars in Quebec City instead of lose $100 million in Florida....at least Quebec City actually has hockey fans

[@pinkwolf6407]

Fire jerseys though. I have more Coyotes jerseys than any other team, the kachinka is iconic!

[@Thedude4777-gh1lj]

Yeah iconic because it almost led the NJL to full on bankruptcy

After doing retired it was the start of the decline

We all know he will not get a new arena in 5 years & Betman knows he will not do it. So,why the NHL let him keep the name? The owner knew he was in trouble & did not even ask to leauge for help. Shows how badly he was in trouble. Cheap hotel rooms even worst making false clams on official documents. He should not be a owner on any sports league if does that.

[@henryca03]

Alex Meruelo was supposed to buy the Atlanta Hawks not long after their then-owners Atlanta Spirit shipped the Thrashers off to Winnipeg, but the deal ultimately fell through. Atlanta Spirit was a s**t-show itself, and the Hawks under Meruelo would've been no better.

[@dbak322]

SLC puck .

[@ESUSAMEX]

An organization rots from the head. The team never was well run by true professionals. You know a team is badly run when the game's best player ever cannot even help out and grow the fan base. I do not understand why the fans could not drive an hour to support their team? I mean, most NHL fans must travel an hour for each game. I just hope the new name for the team in Utah will be a good one. Salt Lake City Pit Vipers sounds great to me.

[@Cerby1979]

Would have to say though that if it weren’t for the Coyotes, Matthews and Knies wouldn’t have been in the league.

[@Thedude4777-gh1lj]

Shit that never happened for 700 alex

[@sampicano]

Matthews. Born in California. To a Dad also from California and a mother from Mexico. Played amateur hockey in Arizona, and Michigan. Played professionally in Switzerland and Canada. Ah really screams Arizona.

[@HisNameIsX1]

Bad management

[@sampicano]

No fans in Arizona

[@RemmyRiffs]

21 minutes being a "bit of a drive" and too far to go see your NHL team play is a super sorry excuse. Unless half the fans literally WALKED to the Phoenix rink the real reason it didn't work is because hockey in ARIZONA didn't work. I drive 20 minutes to WORK everyday. Hell... I have no hockey in my area so I have to drive an hour and 20 mins to go play. Thank god I only go once a week, but still.

[@ADTRS25]

I've been a Yotes fan for a while and honestly this team wouldn't have been tarnished so much if the ownership had done its due diligence. Plus Chayka really screwed the team over and bolted. And thank you for giving this video a very fair, honest, and unbiased take. I'm tired of the jokes

[@SimRacingVeteran]

4:06 Ouuuuuffff. You butchered that name of Jim Balsillie. Ball-silly, that’s what it sounds like. Not Basile.

They failed because hockey was never going to work there and it’s not nor has it ever and don’t point at Vegas and try telling me that a bunch of casinos owning comp packages is the same thing because it’s not.

Bad ownership was the problem. Hockey can work anywhere as long as you have a large city with solid ownership.

@@nickb2912 Cool so when is a Quebec City getting a team then because they have an Owner and a NHL ready rink right now and Gary always never mentions them.
