One of the reasons there SHOULD NOT BE A HOCKEY TEAM IN PHOENIX.

technically, there should not be LIFE in phoenix..

Get your Red on! Be proud of the the Wings!

[sleepwalker]

Haha, I remember that article from last year.

At first I thought it was a joke by a Wings fan, but then I realized it wasn't and Coyotes fans are actually really that much of pathetic babies that they have to cry and use the "you live here now, please support us" BS to try to garner sympathy from people just to get them to wear their teams jerseys! HI-LARIOUS!!!




Get AZ out of the league already. They are a bankrupt welfare team with no fans, that the real hockey teams in the league are forced to give money to to keep afloat and keep that ******* Bettmans dream alive, of somehow forcing hicks in the southern US to like hockey.

Make em see Red

While I've been to the Phoenix area once and really enjoyed it, this is hilarious!

And to the article/composer, how sad. I got absolutely nothing against the team trying to remain in the Phoenix area, but to tell opposing fan teams to stay away and be 100% serious about is just sad and desperate. Many LOL moments at this piece of write.

The Red Wings fans will be doing hockey a favor by wearing as much red as possible to embarrass Phoenix and hopefully help cause relocation to a better market.

I think we should take up a collection and hand out Red Wing jerseys to the good boys and girls of Phoenix as they get to the gate at JOBING.COM ARENA

[Robby2419]

heard an amusing chant at the game last night that i couldnt help but join in on

back to winnepeg!

[Green Wing]

[WorkingOvertime]

If Wings fans do stay away, the arena won't be full. This is just sad for Phoenix.

Hopefully the Wings fans will be out in full force, wearing red.

[Robby2419]

lol. it seems like theres a simpsons reference for just about anything

[F.Michael]

Dunno what's more pathetic; the lack of hockey fans in the desert, the BOG/Bettman for allowing this fiasco to take place, or the columnist who wrote this garbage.

Hope the team moves later this spring.

[Jwo]

I would personally rather have Atlanta move. They are not doing so well either and rumors also about them moving to Winnipeg.

It would give Detroit a better shot on moving to the East.

[ComradeWasabi]

Last year, he wanted Wings fans to stay away. This year, he realized that's not realistic so he wants us to wear white. What's in store for next year?

"Hey, you guys can come, but if you can just throw this free Coyotes jersey on while you're here, that would be great, thanks.."

If I'm the commish, I'd tell this guy it makes them look even more pathetic and they definitely will move now.

One of the reasons there SHOULD NOT BE A HOCKEY TEAM IN PHOENIX.

exactly. you shouldn't have to make a bleeding heart article for the SECOND year in a row begging Wings fans not to wear red to wreck their precious "white out". that was a Winnipeg Jets tradition...make your own you lame f***s!

[WoopWoopDangleDangle]

Yeah why not turn every stadium into Oakland, Staples Center, Dodgers Stadium

Not rooting for the home team? Get your ass beat.

Takes the fun out of the game...My dad told me a story about when he went to Denver for a Browns/Bronco game and he was able to make conversation with Bronco fans
He wasn't messed with except for the normal jokes about the Browns (mistake by the lake etc)

What are sports coming to...

ILL HOPEFULLY MAKE IT TO ARIZONA ON MONDAY AND ILL BE IN MY HELM JERSEY

[AtomicPunk]

Maybe we should all wear blue and white, since their players will be next year. Screw Phoenix. The game probably wouldn't even sell out if it weren't for Wings fans.

[wingslogo19]

Well maybe next year we will be seeing the Jets instead of the Yotes

[webwing91]

Well this is an article from a writer who writes about the Yotes once a year. He doesn't have any hockey credibility in Phoenix either.

Though I will say that a decent number of Wings fans do wear white to the arena:



don't see too much red.

Anywho, as the Coyotes are my #2 team, I have to pipe up and say there are a lot of good fans in Phoenix and new people being brought into the game every day. I've gotten tons of people interested in hockey in the last couple years and I see a strong future if Hulsizer buys the team.
