Big news is coming for Coyote enthusiasts! Sources indicate that on April 18th, NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman will announce a major change that the Arizona Coyotes are expected to be sold to billionaire Ryan Smith and will relocate to Salt Lake City, Utah.
Having made their home in the desert since leaving Winnipeg in 1996—where they were originally known as the Jets—the team will soon be swapping saguaros for the snow-capped mountains of Utah.
Before they make the move, the Coyotes will have one final game at Mullet Arena on April 17th, facing off against the Edmonton Oilers. It promises to be a poignant evening as fans gather to say goodbye to their team.
A longtime Arizona season ticket holder who's planning to stick with the Coyotes in their new city has mentioned that ticket prices for this last game could double, given the significance of the event and the small size of the venue.
With Mullet Arena already known for steep ticket prices due to its limited capacity, this farewell game is expected to be even pricier.
So circle April 17th on your calendar. It's not just a game, it's a historic moment for the NHL, as the league braces for a dramatic transformation.
