I think Keller can score more, as a rising tide lifts many boats. How much more, I am unsure.
What Arizona needs is to move to a real location, and out of Arizona. If they can find a nice home that doesn't have a NBA franchise that would help attendance and interest.

I have a feeling at least 1 or 2 of those guys Arizona just invited on a PTO is going to make the team.

Arizona has one of the most extensive preseason schedules I've ever seen.
September 23rd: They play 3 games, 1 of them is in Australia
September 24th: 2 games, 1 of them is in Australia
September 29th: 1 game
October 1st: 1 game
October 5th: 1 game
October 7th: 1 game
9 games in 14 days, in 2 continents. 80% of the PTO's are to meet the preseason vet rules and to be physically able to ice teams on Sept 23 and 24th.
Arizona is at 23/23 NHL roster spots, and 47/50 contracts. Their D roster is set at 7 (I can't see them moving someone down), and their forward group is at 14, and I only see a couple of guys being sent down in O'Brien and maybe like Carcone...
I don't see a PTO getting signed unless there's an injury.

More schedule funkery for the Coyotes. Good way for them to get off to another terrible start.
To be fair, it's the Coyotes who put themselves in this situation. A team is allowed to set play no less than 6 games, and no more than 8 games in a single training camp period. However, there's also a rule in the CBA (15.5) that says they can't have pre-season games outside of NA unless the NHL/NHLPA International Committee allows it. So I would assume the 9th preseason game was OK'd by the NHLPA.
I assume Coyotes want the max number of preseason games for revenue, and want the Australian games because of that. They also only have 1 game in Arizona in the preseason, which would cut down on "arena costs" whatever their agreement is on that.
So it's the Coyotes doing it to themselves, not the League.

Awesome... hopefully this doesn't go all "John Scott"...
Without trying to be fancy, I like Blizzard and Yeti.
Those just ring nicely.
Utah Yeti feels a tad too "tongue twister"y... and the bigfoot, for me, infringes a tad on that Avs footprint.
So... Utah Blizzard is probably my fave.
I only voted for those two.
I don't see Utah Mormon's

Outlaws is my pick.
I can live with a bunch of those names. Some Utah fans on social media want to avoid anything that is similar to the Avalanche's name and symbols (including the bigfoot shoulder mark of years past) - so that's worth keeping in mind.
