Arizona Coyotes uninspired, embarrassing effort results in 9 to 3 beat down at the hands of the Colorado Avalanche on Wednesday night.

In their latest test against one of the best teams in the NHL, the Arizona Coyotes (16-15-5 37 pts) appeared utterly unprepared emotionally to match the speed and physical play of the Colorado Avalanche (23-8-4 50 pts).

The Desert Dogs knew full well what to expect from that dangerous, high-speed juggernaut in Denver, yet they weren’t prepared from the very get go to try to neutralize the Avalanche attack.
