GLENDALE -The Coyotes plowed through the preseason, and thanks to a 5-1-2 record in eight exhibition games are a confident team heading into the 2016-17 season, their 20th in Arizona.
"We're ready to go, for sure," first-year General Manager John Chayka said. "We were one of the more active teams in the NHL this off-season and that was by design. I thought we needed a refresh and to change things up, but at the same time it wasn't just change for change's sake. I thought we were very disciplined and specific in the areas of our team that we were trying to address, and I feel confident that we addressed some of those deficiencies."
