Arizona Coyotes file lawsuit against the City of Glendale

In what is likely the least surprising development on this story, the Arizona Coyotes have officially filed suit against the City of Glendale.

Many NHL players put a lot of stock in numbers, for reasons of luck, or continuity, or as an homage to a childhood hero. Sometimes teams immortalize numbers by retiring them from active use.

Early Friday afternoon the IceArizona ownership group filed a lawsuit against the City of Glendale in Maricopa County Superior Court in an attempt to stop the cancellation of the Gila River Arena management contract.
