I could have sworn though...what I heard this morning (and who knows, I was out late last nite...so could be way off) - that they had a difference of like 100mil - and the GWater was going to do the 20, then Hulzy said something that he'd do the other 75mil then...or it couldve been about something different/and I don't know what I heard.
He's a hockey guy...I'd think he'd be good for the team (much better than the other fucks they had). I don't see why if he wants them, the City agreed to redo the lease/parking, etc...but now the GWater wont play ball - other than them having other interests.
Who knows...who cares...it'll be done soon enough one way or the other.
And Winnepeg/Quebec had zero interest at the time of keeping their teams at the time of leaving...so they didnt "lose" them - they let them go, acco.

Speaking during the intermission of Sunday's Coyotes-Blackhawks game, Hulsizer said he is willing to guarantee $75 million worth of the $116 million in bonds the City of Glendale has been trying to sell to complete the sale.
“We, on Friday, sent a letter to Goldwater to make it brain dead simple,” Hulsizer said during tonight's telecast. “We said ‘Look, we're going to take the $100 million you get $25 million back. $75 million will guarantee it.'”
It is believed the $25 million to which Hulsizer is referring is the amount the city would have to contribute to the Coyotes 2010-11 losses if the team is not sold. The city committed that amount last spring as a condition for the NHL to operate the team in Glendale for another season but is not obligated to pay the amount if a deal goes through.
