The Arizona Coyotes will not be renewing talks to continue playing hockey at Gila River Arena in Glendale, Arizona, based on a letter from one of the team’s owners to a city official sent Thursday.
While the team has long said it is exploring other Valley locations for its new home, Coyotes President and CEO Anthony LeBlanc slammed the door on the possibility of returning to Glendale in a letter to the city’s manager, Kevin Phelps.
“Simply put, the Arizona Coyotes have every intention of leaving Glendale as soon as practicable,” the letter read.
