They accidentally revealed who the Coyotes' new captain is.
In an article, the NHL's writer called Clayton Keller the team's captain.

No official announcement has been made about the team's new captain, but after this, it should come quickly.

The Coyotes haven't had a captain since 2021 when Oliver Ekman-Larsson left the team.
Naming the leader of the team will certainly help them in the next season.
Keller deserves to receive that title as he's been carrying the team for the past few seasons.
In 442 games in Arizona, he has scored 342 points, including 133 goals. Throughout this time, he has remained faithful to the team that drafted him as the 7th overall pick in 2016.
He'll be a good captain for years to come.
