Coyote Tracks - September 21, 2010 - Time for ACTION!

It's go time! Seriously, it's the day of real(ish) hockey! At some point today I imagine we'll know the full roster of those travelling to face the Ducks and once that's released we'll get that posted up for you here. Sounds as though Paul Bissonnette will be among them though according to his twitter account. More coming up later in the day, including some player previews, an attempt at a game preview and maybe even a gamethread if I can find a radio feed of the game. Until then... LOS LIIIIIINNNKS!
