As always, a great read! You are the voice of Arizona hockey, and I always appreciate your insight and support of Valley hockey. We were Coyote season ticket holders from the beginning regardless of all the obstacles. We have the jerseys to prove it! Sean Doan will probably remain my favorite athlete forever. Totally excited about what Lindsey Fry has brought to the Valley and her commitment to youth hockey. She is making hockey something special in the desert.
We now enjoy watching our grandsons - one coaching and the other playing a pretty good game of competitive youth hockey! We even get to travel to some of the games around the country. It's a fun game and the foundation for hockey in the Valley. Someday some of the rich guys will get their act together and bring back professional hockey. In the meantime, we greatly appreciate your support of both ASU and Valley youth hockey. You help to keep it real for those of us who just enjoy hockey of any sort. Thank you! Keep up the great work!
The Miracle team introduced me to hockey but I didn't became a hockey fanatic until Conor Garland was drafted and have followed his career ever since. I am a STH to The Roadrunners and was a half STH to the Coyotes. I loved seeing my boys develop, get contracts and grow into men on and off the ice.
I did everything I could to support both teams while they were both here. My house looks like the hockey hall of fame with so much signed memorabilia from past Coyotes, The Miracle team, Roadrunners and AZ born players.
At 72, I'm hoping to live long enough to see Quinton Michael Garland get drafted before I pass. I'm not holding my breathe for Coyotes 2.0. I doubt a deal will materialize within the time frame that allows the Coyotes to be reactivated. I'll continue to support former Coyotes and Roadrunners until they too are taken away.
I don't know that I have the emotional strength to go through all the ups and down again with a completely new franchise. Once the last "Coyote" leaves Utah, they will no longer be my team. I will continue to support players but will no longer support jerseys on the back not called Coyotes. It was never about the jersey, it was always about the players.
Craig,

Most fun I ever had.
If I could do it all over again, I wouldn’t have worn hockey gear to the games.
I just wanted to support the team in my city as a show of appreciation to opening my eyes to the most exciting spectator sport I ever witnessed.
The only two fights I’ve been in, in my life were because I wore Coyotes gear to a game.
In the last two years, I didn’t wear any hockey things and had a much better time.
That’s how much a minority we were in that arena.
I really miss being a part of that adopted family.
After 105,000 miles, I’m nearly crippled but still dragging myself around.
It’s embarrassing how long it takes me just to run a mile now and the doctors said I may have something called “ runners dystonia “
Look that one up for something new and interesting
I think though it’s just severe osteoarthritis.
More labs pending
Today?
5:30 am 2 mile walk
Breakfast
7:30 am 2 mile “ run” and 2x466 meters in 3:00-2:45… .50 walk cooldown
I’m not ashamed
I trained like an ANIMAL for 48 years.
I’m outraged though Craig. Outraged!!!
What’s up with Heeter??????
Hope he sticks around until we get a team!!!
How about a Heeter interview????!!!!
