The Arizona Coyotes are packing their bags for Salt Lake City post-season. After a recent team meeting, the players got wind of this relocation news. Even the team's chairman, Alex Meruelo, chimed in with a statement, expressing understanding for everyone's concerns but keeping mum on the details for now.

There has been a lot of discussion in recent days about the future of the Arizona Coyotes. I understand and empathize with the concerns of our fans, our community, our partners, our players, our front office, and all of our team members. I hope to address these issues as soon as I am able to speak on the topics.

We are focused on a myriad of issues that are unresolved, and therefore we are unable to make any official public comments at this time. However, you have my commitment that I am going to speak on all of these issues and publicly address all of your concerns as promptly as possible.

Respectfully,

Alex Meruelo
Chairman & Governor
