Coyotes Open their Ring to Honor Leighton Accardo by Alex Kinkopf @AEKinkopf / Arizona Coyotes
Carly Accardo says the biggest fear of a parent who has lost a child is the fear of that child being forgotten.
The Coyotes are doing their best to soothe, just a bit, that fear. Arizona will induct Carly s daughter, Leighton Accardo, into the team s Ring of Honor, Saturday, making a legacy of her memory.
And a lasting one.
Leighton, a skater with the Kachinas hockey program, passed away, at age nine, November 24 from Stage Four cancer. Her life and spirit will be honored prior to the Coyotes 3 p.m. game against St. Louis at Gila River Arena.

Question of the Day
GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) - Lyndsey Fry remembers the day she met Leighton Accardo.
Addressing a group of 40 kids at a hockey camp, she felt the tug of a 4-year-old girl who needed to use the bathroom.
The cute freckled face, the unapologetic gumption.
TOP STORIES
The Arizona Coyotes were supposed to visit the 9-year-old one last time that day. They just missed her.
The sobbing in the shower, the regret of not going to see her sooner.
“She was just that kid in the rink that everybody knew because she just had this radiating positivity, bubbliness, whatever you want to call it, everywhere she went,” said Fry, the Coyotes’ director of external engagement and female hockey. “She was a memorable kid.”
