With all of the turmoil in the NHL amongst the rejection of the Coyotes' plan for the Tempe Arena, the league has given some clarity regarding the immediate future of the Coyotes.

This appears to be a one-year fix that gives the Coyotes a chance to sort out a new location by the end of it for relocation. While playing in a college arena is far from ideal, it offers the Coyotes some leeway in what they will be doing in the future.
This move will allow the Coyotes and the league time to determine what is the best fit for the franchise.
It appears that the favorites are Houston and Salt Lake City. Quebec looks more and more unlikely because Arizona is a western conference team and the league does not want to realign divisions once again.
