Remember when the Arizona Coyotes relocated to Salt Lake City and became an "expansion team?" That left a massive void for desert hockey, giving the Vegas Golden Knights a "golden" opportunity to poach some territory. That meant hockey clinics and watch parties in Phoenix and Scottsdale, which spread the footprint across the Grand Canyon.
Well, it seems that time might be coming to an end soon. Andrea Doan joins an advisory committee in Arizona in hopes of bringing an NHL team back to the Grand Canyon state. She's joining Chairman Thomas Galvin in an attempt to resurrect the sport in the Phoenix area.
