Utah

The NHL team moving from Arizona to Salt Lake City will be known as Utah, at least initially, until a long-term name is determined.

The Arizona Coyotes, an NHL team that moved to Arizona from Canada decades ago, is on the move once again, in a sale that will leave Phoenix without a professional hockey team for the first time since the 1990s.

The Coyotes closed out their 28-year Arizona tenure as winners, getting a goal and an assist from Dylan Guenther in a 5-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Wednesday night.

From a tragedy near Sedona to what could be the Arizona Coyotes' final chapter in the Grand Canyon State, here's a look at some of our top stories.

Barring an unforeseen circumstance, Coyotes owner Alex Meruelo will sell the team’s hockey operations to Utah Jazz owner Ryan Smith shortly after Arizona’s season finale.

From a deadly shooting near several West Valley businesses to a gang member who will spend decades behind bars for an ‘ambush-style’ attack on a police officer, here's a look at some of our top stories.

The Arizona Coyotes will likely be sold to Utah Jazz owner Ryan Smith shortly after the team’s final game and will include a provision guaranteeing current owner Alex Meruelo an expansion team if a new arena is built within five years, a person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press.

A guilty plea by the leader of an offshoot polygamous sect near the Arizona-Utah border is at risk of being thrown out due to an unmet condition of his deal that hinged on whether others charged in the case also would plead guilty.

The Coyotes' future in Arizona is in doubt. Last May, voters rejected the NHL franchise's plan for a multibillion-dollar entertainment district in Tempe.

The Coyotes said they’re committed to winning an auction for a plot of land in Phoenix that would house a 17,000-seat arena and entertainment district. The Arizona State Land Department set the auction for June 27 with a starting bid of $68.5 million.
