The Coyotes returned to the Central Division for the 2021–22 season. The franchise was previously part of this division from the time of its formation in 1993 (when the team was still based in Manitoba) through to the end of its second season in Arizona in 1998. The modern Winnipeg Jets are also in the Central, thus for the first time that citys original NHL franchise will be in the same division as its current team. The leagues new expansion team the Seattle Kraken took the Coyotes' place in the Pacific Division.^[3]

This was the Coyotes' final season at Gila River Arena, as the city of Glendale decided not to renew the teams operating agreement with the city.^[4] Following this seasons conclusion, the Coyotes would reach a temporary agreement with Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona, where the franchise would agree to play at the newly constructed Mullett Arena until they agreed to find a more permanent new home for themselves going forward. The Coyotes finished with 57 points, the worst record in the whole Western Conference.

They were eliminated from playoff contention following a 6–1 loss to the Edmonton Oilers on March 28, 2022.^[5] The Coyotes closed Gila River Arena by beating the Predators, 5–4, after trailing 4–0, in the season finale. Coincidentally, the Predators beat the then-Phoenix Coyotes, 3–1, in their first home game at Gila River Arena on December 27, 2003. It was known as Glendale Arena at the time.
