The Coyotes have been surrounded by financial uncertainty recently and with them cutting costs with how they treat players, it may drive players away from the team.
With substandard lodging and travel, it is another deterrent for players who may want to go to the desert. The Coyotes' star players have already been rumored to wanting to leave the franchise and this could be one of the factors.
Clayton Keller was the Coyotes leading scorer with 86 points and 75 primary points which is very good production. Keller's father said his son won't be in Arizona next season and this could be part of it.
Top prospect Logan Cooley also chose to play in the NCAA for another year instead of playing in the NHL which he certainly could do next season.
Last season Jakub Chychrun was traded and he had requested a trade long before he was traded and his treatment must have been a factor in wanting to leave.
