There was no goal horn, for some reason, but you probably wouldn’t have been able to hear it anyway when Christian Fischer shouldered in the first NHL goal in Mullett Arena history. It explodes out of the seats and covers the rink like a blanket, shaking the split ends in your blond mullet. But cram 5,000 fans into a 5,000-seat arena, with a roof that’s about 75 feet above the ice surface and walls just 15 feet or so behind the last row of seats, and the noise has nowhere to escape. Spread 10,000 fans out in a massive, sterile 18,300-seat arena, and the noise just dissipates like morning fog. And therefore, a heck of a lot louder, and a heck of a lot more fun.

It was all the things you usually see at a Coyotes game. And beyond the fake mullets, there was some alarmingly realistic coyote-skin headgear that may or may not have been homemade. There were fans baying and howling all game long. There was the guy who dances frantically and peels off T-shirt after T-shirt during stoppages. Pro-wrestling announcer Justin Roberts bellowed the starting lineup, lending even more hype and volume to the proceedings.Īnd then the puck dropped, and, well, it looked like a Coyotes game. There were cheerleaders in the student section - yes, there’s a student section, with a few hundred Sun Devils allowed to sit on bleacher-style seats for $25 a pop each game - and a drumline wandering the concourse, giving the scene a distinctly collegiate feel.

All series throughout the Playoffs are in a 2–2–1–1–1 format.There were blond mullets everywhere thanks to a savvy giveaway, the Coyotes leaning into the almost too-on-the-nose name of the arena, belonging to a prominent Arizona State donor. After the first two rounds, the home team switches from the higher ranked team to the team with the better regular season record. The winners of the second round then face each other in the Conference Finals to determine which teams will represent each conference in the Stanley Cup Finals. There is no reseeding and the higher seed still has home ice advantage. The winners of each series in each conference will square off in the Eastern Conference Semifinals and the Western Conference Semifinals. The 2 & 3 seeds in each division square off, while the lower seeded Wild Card battles the higher ranked division winner. The Eastern Conference 1st Round and the Western Conference 1st Round occur as follows:īrackets for each conference are split by division. The top 3 seeds from each division automatically qualify, while the remaining top two point getters from each conference get in as Wild Cards. Eight teams from each conference make the playoffs.
