Coyotes President & CEO Xavier Gutierrez says the Tempe City Council will vote Nov.29 on the proposed Tempe arena and entertainment district.
Per sources that vote could actually come even sooner.

I'm very curious to see what the actual dressing rooms will look like after these first four games. They're apparently very expensive.

It's 4 games. They'll put their uniforms on and go play.

If they're that pampered that this is a problem for them, then frankly, they need the reality check.

I agree with Enoch. Everyone is making a huge deal over nothing. This is for four games, the players can shut the hell up and deal with it. Really, I would be embarrassed to complain about the dressing room situation if I was being paid $35,000 to play a game of hockey that night.

I think it's hilarious and awesome. it hearkens back to a simpler time when people played the sport for fun and most people didn't have a stick up their ass over the most trivial of things.

Fans of a team playing in a building and dressing rooms designed over 40 years ago shouldn't be throwing too many stones with regards to facilities.

And anyone who'd played shinny at the Corral could attest to the fact that the visiting dressing rooms there that NHL teams had to use in this city for 3 seasons (not 4 games) were worse than this.

In the early 80s...and they weren't sitting on folding chairs

Flames room isn't even bad...it's similar to Tampa, Carolina, Avs...Oiler fans just started that bandwagon on twitter

I think it's kind of funny, but for a few games, I wouldn't call it embarrassing. It's just kind of on top of everything else. In isolation, roughing it for a few games isn't a big deal.

The players will be offered some hors d'oeuvres along with a 2 for 1 happy hour coupon at the local Chili's for attending that convention.

I think I would rather have walls and privacy. Like, what's going on, on the other side of that curtain?

Do they shower in the sink with a face cloth?

I remember when I was a kid we played in a tournament in a small town. They made a dressing room out of cardboard boxes.

It was nicer than the Arizona one.
