Next year, they'll be the Arizona Coyotes. There are 4 Pro teams in the Phoenix area. 3 of them--the Yotes, Cardinals, and Diamondbacks have Arizona in their name. Only the Suns still have Phoenix in their name.

"Thank God, because I live in Scottsdale and there was no way in HELL I was going to root for a team from Phoenix, but, hey, Arizona! I can get behind that!" -- said absolutely no one ever.

My thoughts exactly. No one is embracing or not embracing this team because of the location in the team name.

Apparently, they're not going to change their uniforms. As Puck Daddy and Deadspin have pointed out, this is the time you WANT to change it up and rebrand, including the sweaters. It's the ultimate time for a money grab.

A money grab only works if you have fans willing to spend the money. As I see it, Phoenix is (no surprise) in dead last in attendance. Maybe it's because no one gives a flying shit about hockey in the desert. You listening, Bettman?

Turn it inside out, then turn it outside in. Wear. Arizona Coyotes jersey.

AT LEAST YOU HAVE A DAMN JERSEY. My Blues jersey I ordered got swooped up by a French Canadian curling team I think.
