The news that shook the NHL world on Wednesday is that the Arizona Coyotes are possibly heading to Salt Lake City, Utah before the 2024-25 season kicks off.

While it's not set in stone yet, Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman dropped a bombshell, hinting that we might hear an official announcement about the Coyotes' move on April 18th, just a day after their final game of the current season.

Now, the NHL could've just stuck the Coyotes in the Central Division after the move. Yet, according to Adrian Dater, there's talk about realignment, especially for a couple of Canadian teams.

Dater's been hearing whispers about a potential realignment. Salt Lake City and the Colorado Avalanche shifting to the Pacific Division, while the Calgary Flames and Edmonton Oilers slide over to the Central Division for the next season.

It's all about reducing travel miles for these teams. It'd mean the Avalanche, led by Nathan MacKinnon, mixing it up with the likes of the Vegas Golden Knights, Vancouver Canucks, and the Los Angeles Kings in the Pacific Division.
