Two second-period goals 2 minutes and 22 seconds apart, and two third-period goals on successive power plays were the difference for the Edmonton Oilers in their 5-1 win over the Arizona Coyotes Thursday night at Gila River Arena.
The Coyotes' goal was one to remember for defenseman Dysin Mayo, whose wrist shot from long range just 85 seconds into the third period was his first career NHL goal in his first career NHL game.
The Coyotes, winless in their first four games of the season at 0-3-1, trailed 1-0 after one period and 3-0 after two. Karel Vejmelka, in his second start in goal and third appearance of the season, stopped 26 of 31 shots.
