The Arizona Coyotes were set to move to the Central Division after this season to make room for the Seattle Kraken in the Pacific Division. But Covid-19 is wreaking havoc on the 2020-21 season so the Coyotes will be hosting some of their future Division rivals a season early, including the Colorado Avalanche.
A few months ago, the Avalanche were responsible for ending the Coyotes first time in the post-season since their Western Conference Finals run years prior. The Avalanche showed the team and fans what it is going to take to succeed in the playoffs.
