This team is as good as gone this summer unless some rich idiot desides he wants to lose tons of cash on a hockey team based in Arizona.
The recession is really hurting the marginal NHL teams ... with the loss of corporate sponsorship and there is a big concern about season ticket sales for next year.

NHL meet the bottom .. bottom meet the NHL .. I have a feeling you'll be spending a good amount of time together. The southern US experiment is an outright failure... other than Dallas.
