Glendale mayor Jerry Weiers will not give another extension to prospective Coyotes owner Greg Jamison.

The deadline for a deal is January 31 and the City of Glendale have signed a 20 year agreement to pay the Coyotes ownership group which Jamison heads, $324 million to run the arena. "We are not there yet," Weiers said. "If he doesn't put the deal together, we won't go down that road again with him. Obviously, if we can keep the Coyotes here under different circumstances and without that same deal it is certainly something I would like to push forward with." For the record, Weiers voted against the deal so his comments are not unexpected.
