New City Enters The Derby to Get NHL Franchise
Talks about relocating the Coyotes have been persistent for quite some time.
Their reputation took a hit in the NHL following their move to Mullett Arena, known more as a minor hockey arena.
While the NHL had hopes to build a new arena, city residents rejected the proposal.
In the midst of this, the NHL clarified that although they don't plan on introducing a 33rd team anytime soon, they're not ruling out future possibilities.
Recently, whispers of another new team joining the NHL have started to grow.

Furthermore, an article by Dave Schwab unveiled a twist in this narrative, citing the involvement of a significant financier.
