The Glendale City Council has approved the termination of the Arizona Coyotes and IceArizona's lease with Gila River Arena by way of a 5-2 vote tonight.
Coyotes co-owner, president and CEO Anthony LeBlanc issued the following statement following tonight’s Glendale City Council meeting.
"We are disappointed with the city's decision to violate its obligations under the agreement that was entered into and duly approved only two years ago. We will exhaust any and all legal remedies against the city of Glendale for this blatant violation of its contractual obligations to us."
The Coyotes have played at Gila River Arena since late 2003.
