Last season, the Coyotes battled the Blues for the final playoff spot in the West Division.
Remember when we played these guys for like seven straight games? Those were crazy times.

The longer the fight for fourth went on, the less either team seemed to want to win games, which in retrospect makes sense, because who wanted to play Colorado in the first round?
Sometimes teams lose the Little League game because they want to go home, and that’s what Arizona did down the stretch.
