Coyotes stage late comeback, fall in shootout to Avalanche

With a third period that played out like an entire game, the Arizona Coyotes clawed back from a sluggish start on offense and erased a two-goal deficit that led into a seven-round 4-3 shootout loss.

The Coyotes held a close game with the Colorado Avalanche, a team vying for the Central Division title, in the final of two contests between the two teams over the last three days.

Matias Maccelli, Christian Fischer, and Clayton Keller all scored in the third period to push for a lengthy overtime that ended with Valeri Nichushkin scoring the lone goal in shootout.
