The
Tohono O'odham Nation of Arizona is said to be in talks for a role with a professional hockey team.
Reports are conflicting but the tribe could purchase a majority stake in the
Phoenix Coyotes.
Or the tribe could end up in a sponsorship deal with the team.
The Coyotes are based in Glendale, where the tribe is facing opposition to plans for a casino.
The federal and state courts have sided with the tribe so far.
