Coyotes Ownership Inspired Board Game…”Clueless”

Oh the drama, the intrigue, the incredible mess. I wasn’t going to talk about this. I really wasn’t but a “mystery” buyer into the now infamous Phoenix Coyote saga? I couldn’t keep quiet any longer. “Mystery Buyer?” Could it be Reinsdorf in Chicago with a billion dollars? Is it a bunch of hockey fans/”businessmen” in [...]

Phoenix Coyotes: The Dog Days of Offseason

Your team is out of the race, the Stanley Cup has been won, the draft is over, you’ve mourned your player losses (good luck Z) and the ice is covered with floorboards for the next few months.
What do you do now?
Plan for the preseason of course! For me this involves a few key items.
Mining [...]

Ding Dong…The Relocation Is Dead!

After 1 year (yes, it has been over a year) of uncertainty for Phoenix Coyote fans and with a black cloud of bankruptcy and financial turmoil that even 50 wins, over 100 points and a playoff run couldn’t squash, it’s time for a little rejoicing. Although it seemed with the bankruptcy and potential owners [...]

Thank You Phoenix Coyotes!

As I have resurfaced from my depressed stupor over our game 7 loss against the Detroit Red Wings, I wanted to say “thank you” to The Phoenix Coyotes.
Thank you…for the inspirational never-say-die attitude that shocked the critics and “make it eight” Canadians and got us into the playoffs.
Thank you…Dave Tippett for taking on the [...]

Phoenix Coyotes: The Puck-et List

In honor of the Coyotes first playoff series in 8 years, I have compiled a Puck-et, as opposed to bucket, list of things I’d like to see accomplished during the playoffs.
* Be the dragon slayers and defeat the Detroit Red Wings in the first round. As this piece is written, the Yotes lead the [...]

Dose Of Doan

Shane Doan may be the best player, playing in this years playoffs, that nobody is talking about. In two games, nobody has made their mark like he has. After 9 hits in the first game, including many bone-crushers, he continued that pace in game 2, but this time added a goal and an assist. There [...]

Playoffs Are Back In The Desert

One part of me thinks that living in a hockey market like Phoenix, is a little sad sometimes, but at least there is hockey at all. I grew up in Edmonton and enjoyed the Oiler’s as a youngster in the 80’s, so maybe I was spoiled. The other part of me is happy that I [...]

Female Coyote Fans..What’s Your Playoff Beard?

In honor of the Phoenix Coyotes returning to the playoffs for the first time in 8 years, last night’s win against Detroit and the Coyotes Charities Beard-a-Thon, I am reaching out to the lady Coyotes fans on the subject of playoff beards.
The playoff beard is a long standing albeit sexist tradition, where hockey fans [...]

Have I Mentioned That The Phoenix Coyotes Are In The Playoffs?

A week ago the Phoenix Coyotes clinched their playoff spot by annihilating the Colorado Avalanche. So euphoric I was that I got writers block. Could it be the awesome scoring power of Lee Stempniak, Wojtek Wolski, Radim Vrbata and Matthew Lombardi? Or the defensive moves AND scoring power of Keith Yandle and Adrian Aucoin? [...]
