With the Coyotes fate in Arizona is disarray, it appears that the Coyotes may have beaten themselves. Read more to find out where they cheaped out!

Coyotes Cheapskated Themselves Out Of Arizona

Lack of Campaigning Was Franchise's Downfall
With the Coyotes' arena proposal being overwhelmingly rejected by the people of Tempe, the Coyotes will have to look to find a new home.
In an article from NHL insider, Frank Seravalli, he reported that:
«the Coyotes side has spent less
than $250,000 to activate the vote, opting for a bootstrap campaign, while the opposition has spent upwards of $2 million, backed by high-power labor unions who have not received a guarantee that they will be the ones building the project.» - Frank Seravalli

With the Coyotes opposition spending over 8 times on campaigning than the Coyotes, it is clear that the Yotes cheaped out when it mattered most and now face relocation.
Many locations such as Quebec, Houston, Salt Lake City, and Sacramento appear to be front runners for the Coyotes relocation.
