2013 Review: Seattle is now part of the conversation
My second post to this site was “How does a city get an NHL team?” I posted it just about 2 years ago in January of 2012. It was poorly written and barely read by anyone outside of my household. In that post I laid out 3 pillars in getting a team. The pillars required were […]
A timeline view of 2013 in NHL to Seattle news
I spent some time looking through twitter feeds and facebook posts to recap this busy year. There were more events, quotes and news worthy items than is listed below.

More on the City of Glendale Arena RFP
Today I saw this article in the Phoenix Business Journal about the RFP to run the Glendale Arena. It is fairly accurate article and seems to have a bunch of inner-web folks quoting the 5 Million in loses per year as evidence to move the Coyotes.
