The 2017-18 season couldn’t have started worse for the Arizona Coyotes.
They’ve lost eight consecutive games out of the gate, only one of which made it past regulation. They have been outscored by 16 in the process, and they are already seven points back of a playoff spot.
As the saying goes, though, there are positives in everything and, in the early going, none have been more evident than the play of Clayton Keller.
The 2016 7th overall pick is off to a tremendous start in his first full season having recorded six goals, eight points, and 30 shots on goal in his first eight games.
