The Arizona Coyotes have not been able to get back into the win column since Jan. 22, hence their playoff hopes continuing to shrink.
That number ticked up to 10-straight when they fell 6-3 to the Edmonton Oilers. After leading 3-2 through two periods, the Oilers scored four unanswered goals to rally back and claim two points.
When trying to pinpoint the reason(s) why this stretch keeps expanding, there is no clear-cut answer of a direct cause.
Walking into their locker room, the level of energy and charisma that it once had a few months back when they were still in a wild card race is now nothing more than just silence and their equipment’s velcro ripping.
