The Phoenix Coyotes have won the Pacific Division! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! We win! We win! We Win!

After taking down the Wild 4-1 the Coyotes have officially won the division title and a 3rd seed in the Western Conference. The Goals came early and often for the Coyotes with Mikkel Boedker getting one, Taylor Pyatt with a pair as well and Radim Vrbata scoring his 35th goal of the year. Mike Smith was huge yet again with a flukey goal yet again. If the Coyotes can keep up this scoring run at all in the Playoffs, Smith shows no signs of slowing down with a bunch more great saves tonight.

First up for the Coyotes will be the Chicago Blackhawks starting on either Thursday or Friday. Celebrate the Coyotes first division banner in here with your favorite GIFs (Titles please), images, cheering, general revelry. Be nice to visitors though. :)

(More coming shortly)
