The Arizona Coyotes' meeting with the Dallas Stars on Tuesday was a very chippy contest.
Several fights broke out in the game, especially during the first period, including six seconds into the start of the contest.
Oh, the Phoenix Coyotes. What can I say about you this season? You go from being arguably one of the best teams in the National Hockey League to one the most frustrating so quickly; consistent inconsistency at its finest. But one player has been producing all season long for an up-and-down Phoenix team: Antoine Vermette. […]
The Phoenix Coyotes (soon to be Arizona Coyotes) kicked off a four-game home stand Tuesday in the sweetest way possible: Rocking their division rival, the Los Angeles Kings. And while the win was likely the best all-around game the Coyotes have put together this season, it’s no time to take their foot off the gas […]
Something is smelling a bit “funky” out at Jobing.com Arena. No, I’m not talking about the Phoenix Coyotes’ locker room. I’m talking about the funk happening on the ice, where the team is struggling to win because they are shifting away from their game. The team’s recent six-game homestand didn’t go well. It should have […]
Hey! “Ice Bites” is finally back from the holiday break! There’s some good news for Phoenix Coyotes fans in 2014. Not only is captain Shane Doan back on the ice after missing a month thanks to contracting Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever from a tick bite, but a few of the Desert Dogs are headed to […]
If you somehow missed the news, the Phoenix Coyotes have informed the National Hockey League that they are prepared to host an outdoor hockey game. I know the weather would be a concern, but given the temperatures over the past few weeks, I think it would be fine. But my biggest concern is where the […]
Hockey and the holidays, they go hand-in-hand, right? Sure! And the Phoenix Coyotes are wishing their fans the happiest of holiday seasons by doing what they do best — shooting the puck. Shane Doan, Keith Yandle, Mike Ribeiro, Radim Vrbata and Mike Smith shoot the puck to the tune of “Jingle Bells” in their own […]
The Phoenix Coyotes have hit a trouble spot lately and will hope to get things back on track on an upcoming four-game road trip. In the last seven games, the Coyotes are 2-4-1. That’s not too good. They’ll look to start things right on the Canadian trip with a win over both Edmonton and Calgary, […]
It’s time to face the facts: The Phoenix Coyotes aren’t the same defensive team they’ve been over the past few seasons. That was on display Saturday as the team lost its first game in regulation thanks to the Anaheim Ducks. That was followed by Monday’s showing in Nashville, where the Predators jumped out to a […]
Over the past few weeks, I’ve seen a lot of complaints that the media is ignoring the Phoenix Coyotes. You know, the team that’s near the top of the National Hockey League in points? The one that’s massively outpacing both its point production and goals per game compared to last season? Ya, THAT Phoenix Coyotes […]
For this episode of “Ice Bites,” we’re taking a step back from Phoenix Coyotes hockey to talk about something important: men’s health. Now before you freak out and close the page, give me a second to explain. As guys, we hate talking about ourselves, especially our health. We’d mush rather talk about our weekend than […]
On October 19, as the clock was ticking down on a Phoenix Coyotes victory over the Detroit Red Wings, something great happened. Goalie Mike Smith scored a goal. The moment, which was talked about for days, has since been memorialized in bobblehead form by the team. Follow @AZSports
I would be remiss if I didn’t take this opportunity to mock the Detroit Red Wings. Undoubtedly, Coyotes fans are well aware that Phoenix took both games against the hated Wings this season. In two games, the Coyotes outscored the Wings 9-4, won a majority of the faceoffs and were, basically, better. At a risk […]
If you’re an avid fan of “Ice Bites” (which I know you are), you’ll recall this gem from last season when I discussed the hot and cold play of the Phoenix Coyotes. A lack of consistency was a major factor in last year’s failed attempt at the playoffs. Though this season is young, is it […]
Hockey is back in Glendale! Whoo! Okay, excitement over. Dave Tippett wouldn’t like it. In this episode of Ice Bites, I take a look at two guys who need to have a big season if the Coyotes are going to do well: Goalie Mike Smith and new center Mike Ribeiro. In the tale of two […]
Phoenix Coyotes first-round pick Max Domi’s road to the desert was an interesting one. This four-part series follows the player through the process, from the day of the draft to the time he was introduced in the Valley. Follow @AZSports
