SportsNet Broadcaster Weighs In On Arizona Coyotes' Future

The National Hockey League’s line in the sand regarding the Arizona Coyotes just got brighter and deeper.

NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman has sent a letter to state legislative leaders telling them that the league is committed to keeping the team in the Valley — but not in Glendale. In bold letters, Bettman’s note says “The simple truth? The Arizona Coyotes must have a new arena location to succeed. The Coyotes cannot and will not remain in Glendale.”

To learn more about the Coyotes’ future and the perception related to Bettman’s letter, we spoke with John Shannon, broadcaster for SportsNet in Canada’s Hockey Central.
