Arizona Coyotes return to Gila River Arena with another win under their belts after beating the Seattle Kraken 5-2. Unfortunately, the Coyotes will have a much harder match tonight as they host the Tampa Bay Lightning.
The Coyotes did a good job at getting ahead early and staying ahead. They didn’t trail the game once and were able to walk away with a commanding win thanks to two empty-net goals.
Arizona maintained the lead thanks to some stellar goaltending from Karel Vejmelka and a solid second period. More often than not, we have seen the Coyotes collapse in the second period and give up multiple goals.
