The Arizona Coyotes were a professional ice hockey team based in Tempe, Arizona, USA, and competed in the National Hockey League (NHL) as a member of the Central Division in the Western Conference. This unofficial Arizona Coyotes flag consists of the team's official logo and a claret red background inspired by the club's color scheme. In 2024, the team's hockey assets, including its players, draft picks, and hockey operations department, were transferred to a newly established NHL franchise in Utah, which later became known as the Utah Mammoth. Following the transaction, the Arizona Coyotes franchise became inactive.

Also known as the Kachina logo, the Arizona Coyotes logo was based on ancestral spirit figures of the Pueblo peoples. It depicted a stylized coyote holding a hockey stick, rendered in a Southwestern-inspired patchwork of colors including green, brick red, sand, and purple. The crescent shape on the chest formed a subtle "C" for "Coyotes", while the overall stance was also arranged to suggest an "A" for "Arizona". The design drew heavily on Indigenous-inspired visual traditions and regional symbolism, linking the team identity to the cultural and geographic character of the American Southwest. The multicolored palette and textured composition gave the emblem a distinctive and highly recognizable appearance within the NHL. Overall, the logo emphasized the team's connection to Arizona's regional identity and its unique visual branding in professional ice hockey.
