Coyotes' Contract With City of Glendale for Arena Not Extended Past 2021-22 Season

The Arizona Coyotes must find a new home within a year.

Per Katie Strang of The Athletic, the City of Glendale has opted out of its year-to-year lease agreement with the team as of June 30, 2022, making the 2021-22 NHL season the final one for the Coyotes at Gila River Arena.

Strang provided more context regarding the current situation between the team and city:

"The current lease agreement operates on a year-to-year basis and can be terminated by either party via written notice on or before Dec. 31. The Coyotes also use administrative space within the arena, which the team must also vacate.
