As a flames fan I have always had a soft spot for the yotes as bad as they were you couldn't hate them, they've been the punching bag of the nhl and deserved better hope if they are still tge yotes in Utah they become respected 😢
After knowing you guys for so long, it's hard to say goodbye to a Team I've known since I was a kid. You will always be remembered by all NHL Fans from the past to nowadays. As a 28 Year Old Flames Fan (I was born in 1996) I will always remember you guys. Someday in the Future, the Coyotes will return to the NHL 🏒 but unfortunately it would be long years away 😢 Goodbye Coyotes, you will always be remembered 😢 Sincerely, Calgary Flames 🔥 Fan
Lifelong Flyers fan living in Phoenix. Loved going to Coyotes games growing up even though travelling to the West Side was always a painful venture. I am gonna miss watching them on TV and am hoping that Arizona gets another chance in the NHL in the future.
As a canucks fan I’m very glad to see the coyotes win there final home game, I’m going to miss the team. I really hope the owner can get everything done by 2027. Just would be sad to see this team go & not return because of what happened.
As a Red Wings fan at birth, the Coyotes were the team I CHOSE to be a fan of. Since 2005 when I had enough brainpower to like something, I went Coyotes. I watched tonights game from Michigan and from the last 1 minute 30 seconds until the end of the broadcast, it was water works. I'm 23 now and have been a Yotes fan by choice since I was about 5. Will always love the Coyotes and I will never forget disobeying my parents bedtimes to watch the 2012 playoff run with Vrbata as my favourite player. Thank you Coyotes, and I pray that one day you'll be back.
Giving me goosebumps as I watch this. Hate this for the fans and all the people involved making the game happen. Most now without a job. LOTS of people losing out tonight. Thank you for the memories and thank you for bringing/making hockey in the desert REAL!!!!
Just leaves a lot of questions. Are they gonna change the name? Keep it and become the Salt Lake City Coyotes? Or when the expansion Arizona team comes back we get a Browns situation and the Coyotes resurrect that way?
Born and raised in Arizona.. never had I cried so hard for any of the teams. I was born into this coyotes franchise and followed them my whole life.. this is absolutely rough. I feel like they ripped them away from me
As a wild fan I am sad to see them go…I had the Nirth Stars leave mn to tx now coyotes to salt Lake, sad day in hockey to have another team go. I loved to go to the games
The arena situation was a mess, the whole thing was a nightmare, but the way this ended will never be fair to the fans, the state, or the people who worked through all those problems to play hockey in a desert 🙁
For some reason the howling sound they play in the arena made it even more emotional for me… Because even though they've always played it, this time the Coyote sounded like it was howling out of sorrow or loneliness 🙁 … Like it was lost and alone in the desert…
What a way to go out. It sucks what's happening to arizona but I'm glad they went out in style. Stinks for the loyal fans but i'm glad they did a nice after game party to celebrate.
Despite everything that happened since the last couple of years and how dreadful it was for the team in this situation, from getting kicked out of Glendale to what we see today (and as someone who also wants a team in Quebec really bad), I'm saddened to see this. Lots of sympathy for AZ fans.
Keep supporting hockey Arizona! Wether it's in the minor leagues or in schools, it's important that you do. Much love from an Avs fan in Quebec.
Always had a soft spot for the Coyotes. They were first team I played against in EA sports NHL '97 on Playstation, which was my introduction to ice hockey. If the rumours are true the team name will remain in Arizona, so hopefully if a new arena is built it's not so much "Goodbye", but rather "See you when you get there".
Canucks fan here this makes me very sad and I feel for the Arizona fans I remember the great games we had against this team I was always looking forward to when they played them they were games to remember and it’s sad to them go the hockey community will miss you Arizona coyotes

Shame on bettman

Coming from a North Star fan I know how fans must feel…
The Arizona Coyotes hockey team were former Winnipeg Jets
There's no crying in hockey

You can only play so many games in a 4,000 seat arena before relocating.

Its a shame their owner is a snake oil salesman
Where's former Coyotes head coach Wade Gretzky…..?
I remember in Winnipeg in 1996 we said: PHOENIX, TAKE CARE OF OUR BOYS ! You had ONE job, and you didnt do it.
The First Golden Knights home game was against the Coyotes, sad to see this happen. Always wanted to travel to Arizona to see a game against the two.

Guess they might be the Utah Yeti/Stags in the future.

And just think Bettman will offer this guy another org in a few years from expansion…they need a real owner if AZ truely has a chance again.

You will be very missed Coyotes. As a Kings fan this hurts to see

They should’ve named a Captain for the last game 🙁

Rip coyotes
Navždy zůstane v mém srdci Coytes ❤❤❤vsichni hráči i trenér Tourigny❤❤❤ byly jste úžasní ❤❤❤
as a sharks fan, lots of games versus phoenix/arizona. it was always shane doan vs joe thornton/patrick marleau for quite a while.
RIP Yotes. The fans and staff did not deserve this.
Man I feel for the fans, it sucks, truly y'all, so so so sorry.
America and their sports,everything is for sale 😀
Heartbroken for this fanbase. And for the broadcast. 😢
My heart is heavy now. Sad to see Coyotes go.
imagine saying goodbye to your lifelong team in its final moments and the sound guy puts on James Brown's "I Feel Good"
Always had a soft spot for the Coyotes. They were first team I played against in EA sports NHL '97 on Playstation, which was my introduction to ice hockey. If the rumours are true the team name will remain in Arizona, so hopefully if a new arena is built it's not so much "Goodbye", but rather "See you when you get there".
And don't let the door hit you on the way out
I feel so badly for the Coyotes fans. Hockey can work in Arizona, they just got so screwed over by bad ownership 😢
Well, that's the end of an era in Arizona. Good luck to the Utah Coyotes!
Canucks fan here this makes me very sad and I feel for the Arizona fans I remember the great games we had against this team I was always looking forward to when they played them they were games to remember and it’s sad to them go the hockey community will miss you Arizona coyotes
