According to Darren Dreger of TSN, the Arizona Coyotes are finalizing a plan to purchase land in the Phoenix area to build their new permanent home, with it expected to be officially announced at some point in January.
If approved and the plan becomes finalized, as is expected, it'll likely put any relocation rumours to bed. For years now, the Coyotes have been linked with a potential move outside of Arizona, with cities such as Houston and Salt Lake City mentioned as landing spots.
For now, however, the Coyotes will remain at the 5,000-seat Mullet Arena, which has draw the ire of many in the hockey world every since they moved in during the 2022-23 season.
