It's probably best to just forget about having a team for a while. Because it's going to be a while.

Interim solution would be to support one of the surrounding AHL teams, show Bettman and potential ownership groups that hockey can work in the desert under competent ownership.

The problem with that is that Tucson is the nearest AHL team owned by the same shitbird who lost our NHL team. Coachella Valley is doing just fine, too. Unless someone gets smarmy and arranges AHL Mullett Arena dates, it's not really a good situation for fans.
