3 Games.
It's time to prove it.
The Arizona Coyotes are heading to San Jose to participate in the 2022 Rookie Faceoff Tournament with 28 prospects that were either drafted, acquired via trade, signed as free agents, or offered an individual tryout. The tournament is an opportunity for some to potentially receive an invitation to the team's main training camp, all while squaring off against prospects from other NHL teams.
Games run from Sept. 16 - 19, and Arizona is slated to face rookies from the Vegas Golden Knights, Anaheim Ducks, and Colorado Avalanche.
Though nothing from this upcoming weekend will ultimately end up in the record books, second-year Coyotes coach André Tourigny said after Wednesday's rookie camp that this is the opportunity for young, rising stars to begin to set themselves apart from the proverbial pack.
