Cardinals playoff game causes Coyotes time change

Jan 5, 2016, 10:46 AM

Faceoff for the Arizona Coyotes’ game on Saturday, Jan. 16 against the New Jersey Devils has been changed to noon from the scheduled 7 p.m. start time.

The time change was done to accommodate the Arizona Cardinals’ scheduled 6:15 p.m. kickoff of its NFC Divisional game, and to help alleviate traffic concerns in the Westgate area which is home to Gila River Arena and nearby University of Phoenix Stadium.
