Bill Armstrong, general manager of the newly relocated NHL team from Arizona to Utah, reflects on the swift transformation of facilities to meet league standards. The commitment from new owners Ryan and Ashley Smith is evident in the establishment of a temporary yet world-class practice facility within five months, catering to players' needs.

As the Oct. 8 season opener against the Chicago Blackhawks approaches, coordination efforts with the Utah Jazz have streamlined the transition. Renovations at the Delta Center are underway to prepare for the new season, marking an improvement from the previous two years when the Coyotes played in a college arena.
