I’ve always loved the Jets/Coyotes tradition of the Whiteout dating back to 1987 when the Jets called upon fans to wear white to support the home team. The NHL needs to allow home teams to choose their jersey color for home playoff games so players can wear white too.

As the Coyotes play their final game in the Valley tonight, I am so grateful for all the incredible memories & friendships over the last 28 years. Hockey belongs in the desert. What a ride! 🙏

The Coyotes situation is so sad. In the end, this could be the best news yet for Arizona hockey fans. You can’t succeed in sports without a first class owner and a centrally located venue. If these are secured in the future, I have no doubt that hockey will thrive in the desert.

You have to admire the Coyotes players & coaching staff. With all the rumors & speculation the past few days it would have been easy to roll over and not show up in VAN & EDM. Instead, they have displayed tremendous character, pride & professionalism. Good for them.

Bittersweet night as my NHL career with the Coyotes/Jets came to an end after 27 years. I am very grateful to have worked in the League for almost 3 decades. It’s been an honor to work with the most amazing athletes and people and all the great media. Thank you!

Coyotes fans are so lucky to have a beat writer like you cover their team for almost 3 decades. You should be very proud of all the great coverage you produced Craig. It was evident how much you love the sport, the team and most importantly, the fans. Well done my friend!
Last night's crescendo of a column had me flustered for a full week. I couldn't decide on an approach for this key moment in Coyotes history.

Just having some fun with salary cap follies here. By taking on dead contracts of Pronger, Datsyuk, Bolland and Hossa, Coyotes will have taken on a total of $49.7 million in cap space and paid out $26.15 million, majority of it insured, for guys who won't play a game for them.

So sorry to hear that Doug McLeod has passed away. Doug and Charlie Simmer helped launch the Coyotes in the Valley in 1996 and did a tremendous job on the Coyotes TV broadcasts for several years. Doug will be greatly missed.

His family and friends are in our thoughts.

Hoping he wins it. He’s had a very good career and only had one opportunity to win in Arizona (WCF in 2012). Great person, player and teammate.
Oliver Ekman-Larsson can win the Stanley Cup with the Panthers on June 15, 2024.
On June 16, 2023, he was bought out by the Canucks.
What a difference a year makes:
