The Arizona Coyotes have not had a good run as a franchise as of late, being saved by Gary Bettman and moved into a 5,000 seat arena (that they still can't sell out) in an effort to make them look better so far has failed and only made them look worse to fans and opposing players alike. This won't help that.
Yesterday when the Coyotes took on the New York Islanders and in the second period with 10:51 remaining, the Islanders bench door broke, causing a delay in the game. Take a look:
The Coyotes were subject to a 14 game road trip earlier this season in an effort to make Mullet arena a more professional hockey arena and yet, they're still having these kinds of issues?
The Islanders can't be too happy with the delay either, coming from an actual state of the art NHL rink to this has to be shell-shocking to say the least.
If there's a silver lining for the coyotes and their fans in this one, it's that they won the game by a score of 5-4, but it looks like Mullet Arena still is in desperate need of upgrades.
