Arizona has a slew of players that are coming off the books next season, that can be both a good and bad thing. The Coyotes are going to look different next season, but how different depends on the level the team plays at this season, and how good the players are.
If the Coyotes are out of the playoffs by February some of the players listed here might find themselves playing someplace else. However, if they are in the playoffs then the Coyotes might take a risk that some of them will re-sign with the team.
Not having a contract is an incentive to play better.
