For the second year in a row, the Coyotes failed to make the playoffs. It would be the first season the franchise would have playing their home games at the Glendale Arena. However, because the Glendale Arena didn't open until December 26, the first 13 home games were played at America West Arena. The Coyotes went 5–14–5–4 for 19 points in their new home arena. Off-season Phoenix went into the talent-rich 2003 NHL entry draft without a first or second-round draft choice, both having been traded in part for Daymond Langkow in 2001 and Brad Ference at the 2003 trading deadline, respectively. They made their first selection in the third round, 77th overall, selecting centerman Tyler Redenbach. None of the eight players they drafted played a single NHL game. Defenseman and team captain Teppo Numminen was traded to the Dallas Stars on July 22. Forward Shane Doan was named his replacement on the eve of training camp.COYOTES NAME DOAN CAPTAIN http://phoenixcoyotes.com/news/press_release_details.php?op=details&ID=436 Phoenix Coyotes August 3, 2022 https://web.archive.org/web/20040620154640/http://phoenixcoyotes.com/news/press_release_details.php?op=details&ID=436 June 20, 2004 September 10, 2003 Regular season Though the Coyotes finished last in their division (13th in the Conference), for a remarkable span in late December and early January, the team attracted the attention of the sports world, as goaltender Brian Boucher set an NHL record for consecutive shutouts.http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=509225&navid=DL https://web.archive.org/web/20180513224201/https://www.nhl.com/news/flyers-boucher-knows-a-thing-or-two-about-shutouts/c-509225 dead May 13, 2018 Adam Kimelman Flyers' Boucher knows a thing or two about shutouts NHL.com December 9, 2009 May 12, 2018 From December 31 to January 9, Boucher and the Coyotes recorded five consecutive shut-out victories, outscoring their opponents 18–0 during the span.
