Picture a giant, bumpy hill. Now imagine you're standing on top of it, in a Radio Flyer wagon a la Calvin and Hobbes. It's going to be a jarring, uneven, downright terrifying ride to the bottom. But the longer you hold on to the wagon, the faster and more exhilarating it gets. When you finally level out, you're practically flying.
Congratulations, you've now visualized being an Arizona Coyotes fan for the next several years.
The current iteration of the Coyotes is brimming with potential. It is also severely lacking in experience. That combination tends to add up to a lot of losses.
