After years of looking for a new home in the desert the Arizona Coyotes announced Monday they have finalized plans for a new arena in the East Valley area south and east of Phoenix and Scottsdale.The new 16,000-plus seat arena in Tempe is expected to be ready for the start of the 2019-20 NHL season and will be part of a larger development that will include a 4,000-seat arena complex that will be home to the Arizona State University Division I hockey team, as well as serving as a practice facility for the Coyotes and youth hockey programs.The team announced that it has entered an exclusive negotiation agreement with the master developer for the ASU athletic facilities district to complete the arena and commercial project. The 58-acre project will be located along Tempe Town Lake.The team and Catellus Development Corporation have until the end of June to come up with a final budget, design and business plan for the project.?The team has been looking at a variety of locations in Phoenix and the Scottsdale/Tempe area for the past three or four years after its relationship with the City of Glendale, builder and owner of the teams current home, went off the rails.There has been an immediate and overwhelmingly positive response to the teams anticipated move to the East Valley, Coyotes president and CEO Anthony LeBlanc told ESPN.com Monday.Its been completely embraced by the fan base and by the corporate partners, LeBlanc said.Its believed the cost of the project will be in line with other new sports facilities in Las Vegas and Sacramento and will be in the neighborhood of $400 million. The team and ASU are expected to bear the vast majority of that cost.One of the key elements of the project will be the smaller arena project which will provide two new sheets of ice that should help the growth of youth hockey in the area.LeBlanc noted the impact at the NHL level of the first overall pick in last Junes draft, Auston Matthews of the Toronto Maple Leafs, who grew up a Coyotes fan and played youth hockey in the Phoenix area.The model for growing the game in non-traditional markets is simple, LeBlanc said.You build ice rinks and you get kids playing the game, he said.The Coyotes have played in Glendale since December 2003. They initially played in downtown Phoenix after the franchise relocated from Winnipeg in the summer of 1996.The move should finally resolve issues of the teams viability in Arizona.Our fans in the West Valley have shown us tremendous support over the past 13 years, LeBlanc said, and we look forward to working with them as we transition to our new home.During the teams time in Glendale, the franchise has been plagued by poor attendance in large part because the majority of the fan base was on the east side. For a four-year period, the team was operated by the NHL as new owners were sought to keep the team in the region.But even after the sale of the team in 2013 there were ongoing issues with the lease arrangement between Glendale and ownership which prompted ongoing legal challenges and the constant threat of relocation.The team is expected to negotiate an extension of their current lease to remain at Gila River Arena in Glendale until the opening of the new building.The Coyotes are off to a slow start this season with a 5-9-0 record that has them in last place in the 14-team Western Conference.

"Hes going to have hip surgery on Jan. 7, and hell be expected to rehabilitate for four to six months beyond that," Canucks general manager Mike Gillis said Friday in an interview. My colleague Scott Burnside has handed over the Power Rankings duties to me for the month of November. After consulting with my dog, Lulu LeBrun (shes a 4-year-old Australian shepherd and she knows her hockey), Ive come up with this weeks rankings.1. (Last week: 7)?Washington Capitals, 8-2-1I was chatting with a GM from another team last week when, unsolicited, he brought up the Caps. They are just so good again. Deep, talent everywhere. Going to be tough to beat, he said. Well, yeah, I mean, we always say that. But is this finally the year? Perhaps.2. (8) New York Rangers, 10-3-0Its funny -- back in August, when Jimmy Vesey picked the Blueshirts in his personal sweepstakes, I thought, Why them? Theyre in transition mode, youre not going to win there anytime soon. Well, given the way the Rangers have exploded out of the gate, I need to rethink that. Theyre so much fun to watch, and they lead the NHL with 4.23 goals per game.3. (4)?Pittsburgh Penguins, 8-2-2Welcome back, Sid! Rust? Ha. How about eight goals and two assists in six games since returning from a concussion.?Sidney Crosby?is just seven points off the NHL scoring lead despite having played half the number of games most players have. Yeah, I think he has it in him to reel in another scoring title this season.4. (13)?Chicago Blackhawks, 9-3-1Since starting the season 0-2-0, the Hawks have gone 9-1-1, including six consecutive wins. Hold off, perhaps, on those window-closing narratives.?Jonathan Toews and company have other plans. Hats off to GM Stan Bowman for continually working his roster magic under massive cap constraints.5. (12)?Tampa Bay Lightning, 7-4-1My preseason pick to win the Stanley Cup has a big test on Monday night at Florida against the rival Panthers. We need to see these two Florida teams face off in a playoff series next spring, please!6. (1) Montreal Canadiens, 10-1-1OK, I know this is a little harsh, given their league-leading record. But I had to make the 10-0 pasting that Montreal suffered against the?Columbus Blue Jackets?on Friday night count for something! The Habs had a nice bounce-back win the following night at home over a rested?Philadelphia Flyers?team. You know Carey Price and Shea Weber were going to make sure that happened.7. (6) St. Louis Blues, 7-4-2Four assists in two weekend victories by pending unrestricted free-agent blue-liner Kevin Shattenkirk. A juicy matchup awaits Wednesday night at home against the rival Blackhawks.8. (2) Edmonton Oilers, 9-3-1The Oilers snapped a three-game slide (0-2-1) on their recent road trip with weekend wins against the Islanders and Red Wings. How much fun will Tuesdays game at Pittsburgh be, as Connor McDavid and Sidney Crosby face off?9. (15) Columbus Blue Jackets, 5-3-2It was a night for the ages on Friday, with that monumental barrage of goals over the league-leading Canadiens. As I tweeted that night, it was as if Columbus took out 16 years of misery as a franchise on the Habs that night. Heres hoping the Blue Jackets make the playoffs this season. Their fans deserve it!10. (5) San Jose Sharks, 6-6-0The Sharks suffered three consecutive losses, including a 5-0 drubbing at home Saturday night in another Stanley Cup final rematch with Pittsburgh. They now embark on a six-game road trek to Washington, Florida, Tampa Bay, Carolina, St. Louis and Arizona.11. (3)?Minnesota Wild, 6-4-1Im not exactly sure why Burnside had these guys third in the Rankings last week. The Wild suffered losses to Buffalo and Colorado over the past week. And while I think the Wild have the goods to be a playoff team, they are going to have more weeks like that.12. (10) Ottawa Senators, 7-4-0Things that make you go hmmm: Despite having the NHLs most offensively gifted defenseman in Erik Karlsson (love having him on my fantasy team this season), the Sens are just 23rd on the power play. They were 26th last season.13. (24) Anaheim Ducks, 6-5-2The Ducks have won three of fouur, and you get the sense that they will start to resemble the team we know they can be soon.ddddddddddddAnaheim starts a three-game road trip on Wednesday at Columbus, followed by stops in Carolina and Nashville.14. (9) New Jersey Devils, 5-3-3The Devils bounced back after losses to both Florida teams with a 4-1 decision over Carolina despite being outshot 34-21.15. (17) Los Angeles Kings, 6-6-0Maybe the Kings dont need goaltending help after all. Veteran Peter Budaj has answered the bell of late, including backstopping the Kings to wins over Pittsburgh and Calgary in their last two games. The Kings open a five-game road trip in Toronto on Tuesday night.16. (16)?Florida Panthers, 5-6-1After opening the season 2-0-1, the Cats have dropped six of nine games. The massive overhaul on the blue-line -- in combination with key injuries -- has had an impact.17. (22) Boston Bruins, 6-5-0The Bruins have the 29th-ranked power play. A year ago, they started the opening month with the hottest power play in the league.18. (18) Buffalo Sabres, 5-4-2Dont look now, but the Sabres have won four of their past five games and deserved to beat the Leafs in their lone defeat. Robin Lehner has been terrific in goal.19. (29) Toronto Maple Leafs, 5-4-3The Leafs underlying stats suggested their slow start wasnt really reflective of their overall play -- and now theyre getting wins to back that up. The NHLs youngest team is riding consecutive victories, with visiting Los Angeles next up on the docket Tuesday night.20. (23) Philadelphia Flyers, 6-6-1The Flyers must have hated watching the Habs get pasted 10-0 in Columbus. The Flyers just knew the Canadiens would rebound. Sure enough, Montreal prevailed over Philly 5-4 in a fun game the next night.21. (11)?Detroit Red Wings, 6-6-1A six-game win streak was followed by a five-game (0-4-1) winless streak. The Wings will be on that playoff bubble all season.22. (21) Dallas Stars, 4-5-3Injuries have certainly influenced the early season for the Stars, who will no doubt bounce back. But the home-and-home, weekend sweep at the hands of Chicago hurt.23. (28) Nashville Predators, 3-5-3Still waiting for the team I picked to win the Central Division before the season to wake up. Shootout losses to Arizona and Carolina didnt impress anyone.24. (19) Winnipeg Jets, 5-7-1Jacob Trouba?kept losing money while the Jets just kept losing games. Saner minds prevailed on Monday when Trouba signed a two-year, $6 million deal to return to Winnipegs fold. The Jets need him, and he needs to play.25. (14) Colorado Avalanche, 5-6-0Its time to ride Calvin Pickard (1.50 goals-against average, .946 save percentage) for a while over Semyon Varlamov (3.67 GAA, .881 SP). Varlamov has two more years, at $5.9 million per on his deal after this season. I would shop him if I were Colorado. Pickard looks legit.26. (25)?New York Islanders, 4-6-2The Isles have dropped five of their past six games. Somethings got to give on Monday night when they host the struggling Canucks.27. (20) Calgary Flames, 5-8-1Man, I was convinced the Flames would bounce back and make the playoffs this season. Its early, but boy have they been inconsistent, especially defensively. Calgary is sitting 28th with 3.57 goals against per game.28. (27) Carolina Hurricanes, 3-5-3The Hurricanes have but one power-play goal in their last six games, and have gone 1 for 16 during that stretch.29. (30)?Arizona Coyotes, 4-7-0The Coyotes have been outshot in six consecutive games, although before Sundays loss at Anaheim they had pulled off wins over San Jose and Nashville.30. (26) Vancouver Canucks, 4-6-2The Canucks have gone eight games without a win (0-6-2) since starting the season 4-0. At least they scored three goals on Saturday night in Toronto after being shut out four of the five previous games. ' ' '
