The Arizona Coyotes hung tough with the Vegas Golden Knights for more than 2 ½ periods. But Tomas Nosek's goal with 9:22 to play sent Arizona to its third straight defeat, 1-0 Sunday afternoon in Las Vegas.
The Coyotes managed just 14 shots on goal, tying a season low, but got a big effort from Adin Hill in their net, with 28 saves in his 10th straight start.
Dryden Hunt hit the post with a shot with just under eight minutes to play, but the Coyotes were unable to generate many chances in a physical game that saw them deliver 38 hits to their division rivals.
