One nice thing from a scheduling standpoint is travel to Salt Lake or Phoenix from most NHL cities is virtually the same. In theory, they could build a schedule for next year that worked for the Coyotes playing in either city and it wouldn't throw any team's travel schedule way out of whack.
That makes it a lot easier than when the Thrashers moved and the Jets stayed in the SE Division for 2 more seasons.
