Coyotes Scuffling in February

The Phoenix Coyotes followed-up their incredible January run (9 wins in 14 games) with — so far — a nightmarish February (1 win in 6 games).  As painful as the month has been you have to admire the Coyotes for at least being “in” every game.  Of course ...

Sloppy First Period Stings Coyotes in 2-1 Loss to Jackets

I was running late yesterday thanks to some “forgotten” homework by two of my kids.  By the time I arrived at Jobing.com Arena the Coyotes were down 2-0 and that was all Columbus would need to end their four-game losing skid and beat the Coyotes 2-1. ...

Game 55: Coyotes vs. Blue Jackets

Carcillo Update & Walking the Toch

Good piece by Michael Farber in SI on Daniel Carcillo’s demotion.  As I speculated it had to do with his fight and more specifically the taunting and yelling at referees afterward that resulted in a game misconduct.  From the Farber piece: “He’s in a ...

This one was painful.  After finally being the team that scores early (Mueller 19 seconds into the 1st period) and getting a spectacular game from rookie Peter Mueller (3 goals, second hat trick of the year) the Phoenix Coyotes melted-down in the third ...

Coyotes Come From Behind to Beat Av’s in OT

The surging Coyotes are 4-1-1 in their past six games, the only loss a 3rd period heart-breaker to the Detroit Red Wings. Last night’s contest featured Mikael Tellqvist in goal and the backup netminder put in a solid performance with 33 saves on 36 ...

Game 53: Coyotes at Avalanche

Regain that scoring touch.  Phoenix is undefeated this season when they score 4 or more goals (14-0).  They managed just half that in their past two outings and lost both.  Shane Doan remains hot despite the snapping of his 13-game point streak two ...
