As we continue to see the Arizona Coyotes‘ Western Conference competitors rise in the playoff hunt standings, it’s not difficult to believe that the ‘Yotes’ chances to reach the postseason are pretty slim. As reluctant as I am to admit it, it’s probably a matter of too little, too late for the Desert Dogs and may very well end with no playoff appearance for an 8th consecutive year.
Many of the Coyotes’ postseason foes are trending upward and seem to be peaking at the right time. Although it’s great from an NHL fans’ perspective, it’s discouraging for the Coyotes’ faithful.
