Arizona Coyotes explode for five unanswered goals in win over Wild
This time, the Arizona Coyotes had an answer for another hot start from the visiting Minnesota Wild. They scored five unanswered goals in the second and third periods for a 5-2 win Saturday night at Gila River Arena.
Tyler Pitlick recorded his first two-goal game as a Coyote. Lawson Crouse got his first goal of the season and Jakob Chychrun tied the game at 2 in the second period, and the Coyotes kept the momentum for third period goals from Conor Garland and the two from Pitlick.
On Friday, Minnesota scored the game's first four goals and cruised to a 5-1 win. Things looked bleak for the Coyotes on Saturday after the first period, as they trailed 2-0.
