The Arizona Coyotes have a special request for Edmonton Oilers fans heading to the Mullet Arena for their franchise finale against the Edmonton Oilers. It's going to be a bittersweet night as the Coyotes bid farewell to the dessert for good as the team will relocate to Salt Lake City, Utah for the 2024-25 season.
In a Reddit post, a Coyotes fan reached out to Oilers supporters, asking them to join in a whiteout at the game. The idea is for everyone to wear white jerseys or gear to create a memorable send-off for the Coyotes in their last NHL contest in Arizona.
Plea to visiting Oilers fans in Arizona on Wednesday - Wear White if Possible. Good Afternoon Oilers family, visiting Yotes fan here.
We are attempting to organize a whiteout, I've been to quite a few Oilers vs Yotes games where we've been outnumbered, so I merely ask if you are able to where a white Oilers jersey or gear you would make us all happy.
I hope if you are attending this game you all enjoy and have a great time sending off our boys one last time in Arizona
