Temporary visitors locker room in Arizona revealed; what an embarrassment
The Arizona Coyotes' struggles have been a longstanding issue and have made them the punchline in a lot of jokes around the NHL. Despite the team operating far into the red every single year, NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman refuses to pull the plug and move the team to a location that can better support an NHL franchise.
The latest issue with the NHL's laughingstock is the visitors dressing room at Mullett Arena on the ASU campus. Arizona was unable to meet the deadlines to have an actual visitors dressing room built in time for the start of the season, so the Coyotes' first four opponents in their new home arena will have to get dressed here:
It's things like this that don't allow the NHL to compete with the other 3 major sports leagues in North America. The NHL is also in jeopardy of being surpassed by MLS and none of us should really be surprised. When the Commissioner greenlights a professional hockey team playing in a college rink whose capacity is almost 1/4 of the average NHL arena, you've earned all of the criticism that you have coming to you.
