Phoenix Coyotes Big Day!

Wow, yesterday may have been the biggest day in the history of the Phoenix Coyotes franchise.  First, they defeat the Nashville Predators 2-1 to win their second round playoff series 4-1 thus moving into the conference championship for the first time in franchise history.   Second, they appear to have a buyer who wants to keep the team in Phoenix.  It's been a long, tough road to hoe for this franchise, they have had to overcome some really poor decisions to get to this point (hiring Wayne Gretzky and building the arena in Glendale come to mind as the biggest blunders).  Things are really looking up though, they are building a great deal of goodwill with their run this year, they've got a nice young nucleus, they've got a good GM and one of the best coaches in hockey.   Hopefully, the Goldwater Institute doesn't sandbag the franchise.  Beat L.A.! Beat L.A.
