Raise your hand if you thought Radim Vrbata would be leading the Arizona Coyotes in points.
I don’t see many hands raised out there.
After re-signing with the Coyotes in the offseason, there were rumblings that Vrbata was past it.
He’d seen better days.
Vrby was coming off of a season where he had scored just 13 goals and pitched in 14 assists for the Vancouver Canucks. It was his worst full season since 2003 in Carolina.
Returning to the desert seems to have rejuvenated the winger, however.
With the team struggling for points in the standings and goals on the ice, Vrbata is the one constant who keeps plugging away now that Max Domi is out with injury.
