Arizona refused to give up last night. They gave up two goals early to the Blackhawks. Jonathan Toews deflected a shot past Darcy Kuemper early in the game. The Blackhawks’ goals were primarily off the rush and involved system breakdowns for the ‘Yotes. For the future, I believe it is imperative that the Coyotes limit the scoring chances off the rush and try to avoid any odd-man rushes.
One key to the Coyotes coming back after falling behind 2-0 in the game would be the 30 hits the Coyotes put on the Blackhawks. Arizona relied heavily on their feisty gameplay to beat the Blackhawks on Sunday night.
