It must be tough to be a Arizona Coyotes fan these days. Every time they seem to make appropriate roster moves and point themselves in the right direction, they somehow end up in the cellars again.
This year they didn’t just lose their first two games, they didn’t even score a goal.
On top of that, all these stats keep coming out about them that are just less than ideal. One interesting little tidbit of information came out that is made much more entertaining by their particular route to becoming an NHL franchise.
This stat actually moved to 0-8-2 after the ‘Yotes once again found a way to lose in the ‘Peg.
They’ve never won at Bell MTS Place in Winnipeg. That seems kind of crazy seeing as the Jets have been playing in Winnipeg since 2011, but the truly laughable part of this is they used to be the Winnipeg Jets.
As pointed out by a Twitter user, the last time they won in Winnipeg, they WERE Winnipeg.
To be a little more exact, their last win in the city came on April 12, 1996, when they beat the Los Angeles Kings 5-3. Their goal scorers were Craig Janney (who had two), Norm Maciver, Shane Doan, and Keith Tkachuk. How’s that for a blast from the past?
