Ice Edge Holdings became a big story a couple of weeks ago when they announced their plan to buy the Phoenix Coyotes. They were quickly pushed aside and the talk focused on Jerry Reinsdorf, the NHL and Jim Balsille. Five for Howling points out why everything might change on Tuesday.
Ice Edge a Front Runner to Win Coyotes Auction?
Yet while no one was paying attention and focusing on NHL v. Balsillie a funny thing happened. Ice Edge actually became a serious contender in this thing. In fact they’ve apparently managed to get close to the one thing Jerry Moyes, and Jerry Reinsdorf failed to. A renegotiated lease with the City of Glendale.If Ice Edge can secure a lease with the city, it would be difficult for a judge to rule against them. Afterall, it is the easiest solution for the judge. It could please the NHL because the team will remain in Phoenix and Jim Balsille will not be able to complain of the NHL bias towards him.
