How a team leaves determines a lot. That doesn't keep people in the area who grow older and get an interest in the sport from holding the same grudges though. New potential fans are growing up everywhere. Having the closest access to a team usually creates fans,
It's an interesting dilemma. I suspect older fans pass their view onto their children. Of course there are newcomers too.
My thought, the primary loyalty remains with the original franchise name for a team, example the Seattle SuperSonics.
We need Arizona Coyotes fans to join the discussion.
