GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) – New team name, new building name, same ownership drama for the Arizona Coyotes.
Only nothing regarding new majority ownership of the team, as indicated in previous reports, was announced before Thursday night’s season opener.
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, speaking before Arizona hosted Winnipeg, said the Coyotes franchise is doing well. Then he fielded questions from reporters about a potential new investor, Philadelphia hedge fund manager Andrew Barroway, at Gila River Arena.
Bettman confirmed that current Coyotes owners George Gosbee and Anthony LeBlanc and their partners have received an unsolicited expression of interest in joining the IceArizona ownership group.
