It appears money and arrogance can't buy everything and even though I wouldn't mind another Canadian team, and Phoenix probably should be moved, I think it's hilarious the guy failed again.

Yet it seems incredibly ridiculous for Bettman to exercise his only other option and keep a losing, bankrupt team in Phoenix. If I were a creditor - I'd be pissed right about now.
Its as if Bettman is cutting off his nose to spite his face.
$100million fee just to
move the team?! PLEASE!
