The Arizona Coyotes could find themselves looking at two scenarios for where they play in the 2024-25 season — and one involves relocation.

Frank Seravalli of Daily Faceoff reported that the NHL, Coyotes ownership and Smith Entertainment Group have made significant progress on the framework of an agreement to relocate the team to Utah.
Earlier in the day, Seravalli also reported that the NHL was drafting two versions of a league schedule for the 2024-25 season, with one being keeping the Coyotes in Arizona, and the other them playing in Salt Lake City in the event of relocation.
Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman reported that if a move to Utah is coming, it will be known soon, partly because the arena in Utah is shared with an NBA franchise, so the league would need to know available dates in order to put together a schedule.

The Coyotes barely have any fans as a relocation for 20+ years why are they suddenly going to have a large fan base as an expansion franchise? 😂
Why? Snows more in Utah than Phoenix. Only usually snows in AZ around Flagstaff. Hockey dumb in warm weather climates.
The Coyotes need to move to Houston.
The market has abandoned the Coyotes, essentially because after 15 years, the Coyotes, as a brand, has become outright radioactive. Even if the team is replaced, the Coyotes are a dead brand. It should have been rebranded not just to simply the Arizona Coyotes in 2014. It should have been rebranded to something else THEN
I live in Nottingham (England), home of the Nottingham Panthers EIHL team, we have an arena that has a capacity of 6500 for hockey games, it's regularly been sold out over the years since it opened, it blew my mind to realise that my local team would have MORE fans attending than an actual NHL team could have!!
If the move does happen, 2 team names – Salt Lake City Stingers or Utah Swarm (something bee related as they have a bee hive on the state flag).
You should listen to The Monty Show” about their thoughts on Ryan Smith and NHL in SLC.
They should move to Québec City or Hartford if they do move
Their fans couldn't even sellout a Junior sized rink. Cry me a river. This team has been a joke since day one. Good riddance
The biggest lesson from these moves should be, "don't get emotionally invested in sportsball teams.". These leagues are nice enough distractions, but they will exploit your nostalgia of going to games with your daddy or Grandpa to the hilt to get all kinds of corporatist goodies, and will leave just as easily when cities and fans start acting as if they are municipal property.
Go to the games. Have fun. But don't think they are "your team," because they aren't. Treat them as the disposable entertainment product they really are.
The problem with Mullett Arena was that the Tempe deal failed. It may have worked as a 1-2 year home while a new barn was definitely being built (similar to teams in other sports who temporarily move to an older or smaller venue while their permanent home is built), but when the Tempe deal fell through and there was no viable exit strategy, the team would have been best off begging Glendale to let them in, because the Gila River Arena was (when I last went there like 10 years ago) a perfectly acceptable NHL level venue. Not the best in the league but certainly not the worst.
No doubt about it, the Coyotes had fans…but none of those fans were elected government officials.
Yes, there were some issues with team management but it was blatantly obvious no one in any level of government wanted the Coyotes staying in Arizona. Roadblocks have been thrown up at every level and at every opportunity to prevent an arena being built.
The NHL didn’t move the team…the team was effectively kicked out by various elected officials. You can fix the problem Arizona…you got a few years to do it.
As a Utahn, I just want an original new team.
It's officially happening
Arizona doesn't like or want NHL hockey, and the people there who did everything they could to make it fail don't deserve it either. Go where your wanted. Who wouldn't want the owner to build essentially a small city, but they won't provide the infrastructure. Pathetic backward simpletons.
Yes, it feels about as awful as when the Winnipeg Jets left for Arizona. You can't run a franchise on the same 15,000 fans. And once again, Quebec City gets kicked in the teeth.
10:23 Nah, let's go with a Mormon name. Utah Prophets, Missionaries or Angels.
I know Brodie brought this up, but I wonder what SLC getting the Coyotes means for their MLB bid. I don't know if they're a large enough market to have three of the big four (four of the big five if you include MLS). Maybe baseball being a summer sport means that there won't be a big conflict with the two winter sports teams.
I like your reporting, however I don’t know about the community argument here. Tempe was pretty clear they didn’t want the Coyote’s project moving forward, the Scottsdale Mayor was pretty clear here too. If you had said “all about the fans, just not these fans” it would have been more appropriate, but that’s just my two cents. This community had 28 years to figure this out, my god the NHL owned them for a while. Only Moses was lost wandering the desert for longer than the Coyotes. No Canadian market would have been given the same opportunity, just look into your own franchise background to realize that. Edmonton was packed up and ready to go in 98, it was the community that came together and bought the team. The Coyotes and the Arizona communities let the fans down.
If the Utah Jazz are selling out an arena for NBA games, will there be enough fans to sell out an arena for NHL games?
Arizona has had 20 yrs plus to get this figured out and continue to fell. Salt Lake City has a great fan base and Wyoming as well. This gives us another team in the Rocky mountain region and that's a good thing. Salt Lake City is a beautiful city and they will be supported and hopefully they keep their name and colors and this will be their final home. My heart breaks for their fans but for the health of this franchise, this is a great step forward.
I feel so bad for the fans. The coyotes ownership should NEVER, be allowed to step foot near the nhl again. But seeing as how Gary Bettman, and the other owners are the hyper greedy POS’s that they are. Money talks. That’s all they care about. They have ZERO interest in the fans, other than our money. And I’m a Canadiens fan. But damn. The owners and NHL did the dogs’ fans dirty.
Let Arizona have the Yotes name and branding if they ever get a team there again, and change the name to something else in Utah so it will be more or less an expansion team.
4 playoff appearances in the last 21 years, the most recent being a gimme during covid. 2nd worst overall win percentage of any active team, with an all-time record of 1423-1598-266-191.
Good riddance.
People who say hockey doesn't belong in the desert need to day that to Auston Matthews right now
Is this guy mixing an album or feature film lol
Where are they going to play in SLC? Where the grizzlies play in west valley? In the delta center
you gotta wonder if any of this is happening if that "human error" hadn't gone on at Gila snd they just paid their bills
What fans?
This is a stupid mess. Why didn't they play in Veterans Memorial Coliseum until an arena was built?
Salt Lake City needs this arena for when the Olympics come too.
Lets go Utah Soakers
The blame is strictly on the owner NOT THE LEAGUE NOT SLC.
The NHL has stabbed this Franchise to not only for it to relocate again but to take on another new name, logo, uniforms and colors. Screw all the idiots who wanted this and say hockey didn't work in Arizona. That's BS and you all know it because fact is it did work up until a dipshit owner didn't want the team anymore years ago that started up all of this that was responsible for the Coyotes getting forced out of their Glendale Arena and now is forcing them out of Arizona. Thank you dipsit owner years ago (I'm glad I forgotten your name) You'll go down in history as the Coyotes Murderer!
The problem is that like Winnipeg 1.0 before, the coyotes have been mismanaged up until this point which also reflects the product on the ice, with competent ownership and a nhl arena arizona would be a good market
Once they moved to the college arena I knew it was only a matter of time till they moved/got sold. I honestly expected the NHL stepping in and taking the team away from the current ownership.
The name mullet was bad enough. Who approved that terrible name?
They didn’t get kicked out of Glendale. They had to sign a 15 years lease and they wouldn’t . Veterans Coliseum where the original Roadrunners and Suns played was still around. Built for hockey , Seats 12000 perfect seats but they would have to put ice back in. Owner wanted to be near the fan base and the planned new arena in Tempe. No back up plan . Big mistake.
