It finally happened. After years of instability, bankruptcy, ownership changes, and constant rumours, the Arizona Coyotes played their final game in Arizona. While some will say hockey doesn’t belong in the desert, ironically this game came on the same night the best goal scorer in the world right now chased down 70. Arguably, Arizona native Auston Matthews may never have played hockey if not for "hockey in the Desert". It’s such a shame this ownership group couldn’t get it right and now great people, fans and a community have to watch on hopelessly as they lose their NHL team. A young team that holds a lot of a promise. The Coyotes absolutely came to play facing off against the Edmonton Oilers. They brought energy and plenty of goals but as a whole, it was just heartbreaking to watch. Salt Lake Sucks chants broke out and as the fans gave their final salut to the fans, there wasn't a dry eye in the arena. I'm just glad fans got to say their goodbyes. With all that said, enjoy as I cover what was the last NHL game played in Mullet Arena!
