Retired numbers

The Arizona Coyotes have retired one of their jersey numbers. Bobby Hull's number 9 (February 19, 1989) and Thomas Steen's number 25 (May 6, 1995) were retired while the franchise was in Winnipeg. Hull's number was un-retired by his request prior to the 2005–06 season so his son Brett could wear it. Both numbers were returned to circulation during the 2014–15 season. Also out of circulation is the number 99 which was retired league-wide for Wayne Gretzky on February 6, 2000. Gretzky did not play for the Coyotes franchise during his 20-year NHL career and the only player in franchise history to wear the number prior to its league-wide retirement was Rick Dudley during the 1980–81 season.

Seven numbers are honored via the induction of players into the Coyotes' Ring of Honor. Bobby Hull and Wayne Gretzky, then entering his first season as head coach of the Coyotes, were the first two players inducted into the Coyotes' Ring of Honor on October 8, 2005.
