This is a nice event from Utah, as they try to grow the sport of hockey. Utah is also prioritizing solidifying its fanbase. Growing a new fanbase will always be a challenge, especially in an area that may already be a stronghold for another team. But Utah has done well at growing its fanbase anyway.
Moving to Utah and getting a new owner seems like a great idea for the Arizona Coyotes. And I'd say this is great for Utah's community as well! No wonder Utah is the opposite of the villain of the NHL world...
