TUCSON, Arizona — Arizona Coyotes CEO and president Xavier Gutierrez was at the Tucson Arena for the Coyotes recent preseason win over the Anaheim Ducks.

Gutierrez spoke about the team's recent television deal, its ongoing arena saga, as well as expectations for the team's on-ice performance during the upcoming season.

The Coyotes, which own their American Hockey League affiliate Tucson Roadrunners, open the regular season this Friday at the New Jersey Devils. The game will be seen on free TV in Tucson on Laff 9.2, which, like KGUN-TV, is owned by E.W. Scripps.
