Coyotes Latest Team to Continue Layoffs

The Arizona Republic reports that the Coyotes let go of nine employees Monday.  Three were from Glendale Arena, six were part of the Coyotes organization.

Team President Doug Moss said the layoffs, though triggered by the lockout, were not cost-cutting measures, but part of a “strategic restructuring” to prepare for the 2005-06 season.

Two other full-time arena positions were eliminated, but not because of the lockout, Moss said.

The article also stated that most positions will be refilled when the lockout situation is settled.

Last week the Sharks cut staff, and the week before that the Thrashers cut down staff hours, but didn’t fire any employees.
