The Phoenix Coyotes Are Sharing Their Music

When it’s been five years since you last made the playoffs, it takes some outside-the-box thinking to generate fan interest. Fortunately for the Phoenix Coyotes, Wayne Gretzky has an iTunes playlist.

The team has launched “Coyotes Trax“—a section of the team’s website where fans can view the iTunes playlists of Greztky, winger Shane Doan, goaltending coach Grant Fuhr, broadcaster Todd Walsh, and the Coyotes dance team.

If you’re wondering whether Grant Fuhr has a playlist full of hip-hop, the answer is no. And shame on your for stereotyping one of hockey’s most famous black players. Fuhr’s playlist includes some older tunes from the likes of Bob Dylan, Nirvana, and the Smashing Pumpkins.

In case you’re interested, Gretzky’s playlist features a good deal of Nickelback, a couple Nelly Furtado tunes, and a Sarah McLachlan song. Surprisingly, it doesn’t include Nickelback’s 2006 hit, “My Wife is an Insane Gambler.”
