When You Finally Kill a Dying Franchise

So for now, it’s goodbye to the coyotes and hockey in Arizona. Throughout the years, Arizona brought in a strong and passionate fanbase and provided the league with some of the best moments of the 2000s. Whether it was against them or for them, the Coyotes are a part of NHL history. They sparked a passion in hockey for soon to be one of the greatest goal scorers ever and they developed a strong youth hockey program in Arizona. If this is it for professional hockey in the desert, it was not wasted.
