Mystery Buyer Steps Up For Coyotes

Posted on August 30, 2010 by staff

Special from the Phoenix Business Journal: A mystery buyer has stepped to the forefront in efforts by the National Hockey League and city of Glendale to sell the Phoenix Coyotes to a new owner who will keep the team in Arizona.

An undisclosed wealthy buyer is leading a new ownership group that is interested in buying the Coyotes from the NHL. The league has owned the team since October when it bought the Coyotes via Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings.

Details of the new ownership group are very limited, though Glendale and the NHL could announce details and developments soon, according to sources familiar with the situation. The ownership group has asked for the city and league to keep negotiations private. The new buyer would keep the Coyotes in Glendale and is not a household name. In addition, sources say progress on the purchase is serious and substantial.

As the new group has moved forward, another group, Ice Edge Holdings LLC, is taking a backseat in the Coyotes ownership saga.

Ice Edge announced Monday it was focused on bringing an ECHL minor league hockey team to Thunder Bay, Ontario. Ice Edge CEO Keith McCullough said in a statement Monday his investment group could have some involvement with the new Coyotes ownership group.

“We understand another party that we have become acquainted with is in advanced negotiations with Glendale and an announcement could happen soon. If this occurs, we expect to continue to be involved with the Coyotes as an adviser for the foreseeable future,” McCullough said.

The mystery buyer is not Chicago White Sox and Bulls owner Jerry Reinsdorf who has held on-again, off-again talks with the NHL and Glendale regarding the Coyotes.

Glendale spokeswoman Julie Frisoni declined comment on the Coyotes wranglings. The NHL has set a Dec. 31 deadline for the Coyotes to be sold to new owners who would keep the team in the Phoenix market. If that deadline passes, the NHL would likely sell the team to owners who would move the Coyotes to Canada.

Privately, Glendale officials are confident they can get a deal done by the end of the year. The city has agreed to cover the Coyotes losses and costs up to $25 million this season while searching for a new owner. The NHL threatened to move the team earlier this summer unless Glendale obliged with the subsidy.
