Arizona Coyotes Announce AHL Team As Tucson Roadrunners

The Arizona Coyotes expansion into the AHL is in full swing with the unveiling of the Tucson Roadrunners.

The AHL franchise showcased it’s new branding at an open house event at the Tucson Convention Center.

The Roadrunners name was leaked earlier this month as the likely choice thanks to some trademarked documents, but Saturday served as the confirmation from IceArizona.

The previous iterations of the Roadrunners have played in the WHA, WHL, PHL, IHL, and CHL.

The latest incarnation of the Phoenix Roadrunners played in the ECHL from 2005-2009 and were affiliated with the San Jose Sharks.
