Not far from the geographic center of Scottsdale. Great location for the future!
Like you say, if it keeps 'em in AZ great but this location just moves the problem. The big swing and miss will always be AWAFootprint not being multi-purpose. Team belongs in downtown, central to everyone. (May suh not Mess Uh).
Absolutely. Anything that keeps them in AZ is good news but a lot of what you mentioned crossed my mind too. I’m from out of state but fly in several times a year for games… but for the local fans that’s quite the hike. Either way it’s a relief to finally be right up upon an announcement
I’ve seen a lot of people saying that this is worse than Glendale and a horrible location, but from what I’ve gathered it’s actually quite good. From what I’ve heard, Scottsdale has a rising youth hockey scene that would could set us up well for future attendance. The 101 up to the site is 1000x better than any drive to Glendale for most fans in the east valley. The players will love it since most of them live up there. And now the big part, I think it’s been pretty obvious that AM is putting real estate before the hockey team, so this location from what I’ve learned will pretty much offset any loss of money if the coyotes have another Glendale situation. IMO, it’s a great spot that could actually set us up for future fans and should make AM a lot of money. Obviously I would’ve preferred Tempe but the NIMBY’s had to ruin that. What ever keeps the team in Arizona I’m fine with.
I know the big complaint about drive and all. However, as a person from New England, I look at the Patriots and how Craft built a stadium a bit away from Boston, however also built a city around Gillet to keep people coming regardless if football season is in or out. If the Yotes can do this it can defiantly pay off in the long run.
Let's Go Coyotes, build the brand new arena in the east valley of the Grand Canyon state by avoiding a public arena vote, win the first Stanley cup in the Arizona desert, put the relocation rumors to rest, and knock Houston right off the map even though Phoenix is rooting for you to stay in the Grand Canyon state forever, don't worry Arizona Coyotes fans, I got your back, keep on praying, but for Houston sports fans, dream on all you want, I'm counting on you Arizona, I'm howling for you Coyotes, I believe in you Arizona, I'm praying for you Coyotes, and I❤you Arizona Coyotes always and forever with all my❤
The arena plans for the Arizona Coyotes should stay on the table, but the relocation rumors shall be removed from the table right now, because the relocation rumors have been swirling around the Arizona Coyotes, and their fans since the corona virus outbreak in 2020 but nice going for Houston, nice going for the corona virus outbreak, and nice going for the voters in downtown Tempe sorry Houston you will never win
As a Arizona Coyotes fan from New Jersey, I hope the Arizona Coyotes will build a brand new arena in either downtown Phoenix, or downtown, Scottsdale, or downtown Mesa, for the 2026-27 NHL season in the east valley of the Grand Canyon state without going through another public arena vote, even though the Arizona Coyotes will definitely avoid a public arena vote, and the 6 sites in the east valley of the Arizona desert where the Arizona Coyotes brand new arena will be built doesn't require a public arena vote but screw the relocation rumors, screw Houston, no more relocation rumors for the Arizona Coyotes, no more relocating NHL teams, and no more folding NHL teams please it's getting old already even though it's all too much for me, Gary Bettman, Bill Daly, Marty Walsh, Alex Meruelo, Xavier Gutierrez, Bill Armstrong, Andre Tourigny, the Arizona Coyotes, the Arizona Coyotes fans, the Arizona Coyotes players, the other Arizona sports teams and their fans in the Grand Canyon state, the other 31 NHL ice hockey teams, the other 31 NHL ice hockey team fans, the other 31 NHL ice hockey team head coaches, the other 31 NHL ice hockey team owners, and the whole entire organization of the NHL as well end of story relocation rumors, end of story Houston, Let's Go Coyotes, I'm wishing you the best of luck, win the first Stanley cup in the Grand Canyon state, and rule the Arizona desert in the east valley of the sun I'm howling for you boys, I believe in you Arizona, I'm counting on you Coyotes, I❤you Arizona Coyotes always and forever with all my❤
