After facing off against each other last night in Denver, the Arizona Coyotes and Colorado Avalanche are back in action tonight in Arizona for the second game of a back-to-back.
The Coyotes did better than most people would have expected against the Avalanche, one of the top teams in the NHL. They came back from an early 2-0 deficit and forced the game to the shootout, which they, unfortunately, lost in the third round.
Arizona didn’t play as well as they could have despite walking away with a point. The Avalanche did a great job controlling the game’s pace and outshot the Coyotes 47-26.
