PHOENIX (AP) -Phoenix Coyotes owner Jerry Moyes is challenging Jerry Reinsdorf’s bid to buy the financially troubled hockey team.
In a motion filed in bankruptcy court on Thursday, Moyes’ attorney says that Reinsdorf’s bid “cannot be approved as a matter of law” and that “there are no qualified bidders” based on terms set by the court.
The motion did not elaborate but says that Moyes’ objection will be laid out in court documents on Friday, the deadline for filing objections to Reinsdorf’s bid.
By disputing the legality of Reinsdorf’s offer, Moyes is setting the stage for a battle pitting him and unsecured creditors against the NHL and the city of Glendale.
