The NHL has had conversations with the Diamondbacks and Chase Field operators about hosting at least one Arizona Coyotes regular season game at the stadium in the future, a league executive said this week.
It could come in the form of an NHL Stadium Series game, which has been held annually at baseball and football stadiums since 2014.
Steve Mayer, NHL chief content officer and senior executive vice president of Events and Entertainment, said Coyotes management has expressed major interest in bringing a special event to Arizona.
"It is on the list. I can't tell you whether the list has two cities or 30 cities, but I will say it's something that we'd explore," Mayer said.
