The Arizona Coyotes spread holiday cheer and lifted the spirits of patients when they visited Phoenix Children's Hospital on Wednesday, Dec. 18. Players Oliver Ekman-Larsson, Jason Demers, Jordan Oesterle, Christian Fischer and more signed autographs and interacted with patients who are in the hospital for the holidays. Phoenix Children's Hospital is a cause close to the team's heart. As a regular beneficiary of the Arizona Coyotes Foundation, the team recognizes the mini superheroes fighting illnesses and injuries throughout the year.
