Coyotes goaltender Adin Hill didn’t know he was starting until five minutes prior to his arrival at Gila River Arena. But by the end of the night, the 21-year-old had his first NHL win under his belt.
Once staked to a three-goal lead in the game, the Coyotes allowed two third-period goals to the Los Angeles Kings to send the game to overtime. After a would-be Kings goal in the extra period was waved off, Arizona prevailed in the shootout to notch a 4-3 victory on Tuesday.
The Coyotes are now 5-1-1 in March and 11-3-2 in their past 16 games.
