These Teams Need An Upswing

from Sam McCaig of the Hockey News,

Every season in the NHL is important, but some franchises are facing make-or-break campaigns in 2008-09. Here’s a rundown of which teams are looking at turning points in the near future.

Phoenix Coyotes

Their on-ice advances last season were somewhat overshadowed by the fact the Coyotes can’t draw crowds. Phoenix has lost big money season after season; how long will the owners throw around good money? The Dogs have to make some noise in the standings and generate local buzz; otherwise…it might be back to Winnipeg.

Problem is, the specter of relocation has chased several top players to leave Nashville (and surely has discouraged most free agents from signing).

The only person to leave Nashville because of the question of relocation was Kariya, and looking back at his 2007-08 season, thank goodness that he did. The others that left on their own decision-making was for the mad cash they made as free agents. And the reason most free agents haven’t signed here is because we didn’t shop for any of them the last two summers. Yet another Hockey News article with selective facts.
