The Arizona Coyotes are taking their hockey team to Utah.
土狼队确定要搬家去盐湖城了
As has been expected for months, the NHL Board of Governors voted to approve the
sale of the franchise's hockey assets to Ryan and Ashley Smith, owners of the N
BA's Utah Jazz, and Smith Entertainment Group (SEG). The group made an official
request for an expansion team for Salt Lake City in January but later ceded to t
he NHL's desire to relocate the Coyotes from Arizona.
The team will play in the Delta Center, currently the Jazz's home arena. However
, the NHL wants renovations to make the facility more hockey-friendly — especia
lly if the club ends up playing there permanently.
只不过做法比较特别，土狼老板Alex Meruelo是将球队以12亿美金
出售给犹他爵士老板
爵士老板之前就在运作要搞一只扩编NHL队伍
现在直接有现成的给他买XD
之后将和爵士共用Delta Center
A new arena was part of SEG's expansion team proposal, and it would also be used
for a likely Winter Olympics in 2034.
也有计画盖新的场馆
This is not expected to be the end of the NHL in Arizona. The sale of the Coyote
s to SEG is for a reported $1 billion, and the agreement includes a guarantee to
current team owner Alex Meruelo for an NHL expansion team if he can build a new
arena within the next five years.
但在这次的转卖案中，有确保原本老板Alex Meruelo持有扩编权
他将继续在亚利桑那推动盖新的场地
如果在五年内成功的话
他有权可重新扩编一队回来XD
目前土狼队整个商标都还是保留在Meruelo手上
However, Glendale city officials and the Coyotes could never reach an agreement
at Gila River Arena that was suitable to both sides, with several potential owne
rship changes and rumors of relocation to markets including Seattle and Houston.
With dwindling attendance, unpaid bills and taxes leading to a failure to reach
a long-term lease with the team, Glendale terminated the Coyotes' lease, citing
a desire to book different events (especially concerts) at Gila River.
土狼队之前被政府赶出Gila River Arena
From there, the Coyotes were left scrambling to find a new home in Arizona. Plan
s to build a new area and surrounding complex in Tempe fell through when propos
als were voted down. That left the team to play in Mallett Arena on the Arizona
State campus.
The 5,000-seat facility is suitable for college hockey but well below the capaci
ty expected for an NHL team, despite renovations made to accommodate professiona
l players. Playing in such a small arena was never going to be sustainable for l
ong-term success and in turn fueled the ambition to find a new home for the fran
chise.
只好搬去使用大学的场地(容量才5000人)
然后老板的新球场计画一直被打枪XD
所以只好先把球队卖了
