Capitals vs. Coyotes Third Period Thread

Well Arizona certainly jumped on Capitals in the first 60 ticks of the second frame!

Just 12 seconds into the middle stanza, Christian Fischer flicked a backhand that was ruled a save. But upon further video review, the call was OVERTURNED to a goal, on the premise that the image below showed conclusive evidence of the puck completely crossing the goal line. It was 2-0 Coyotes.

Then, just 45 seconds later, Michael Grabner got loose through the middle on a breakaway, and beat Ilya Samsonov low and outside to make it 3-0 Arizona quickly.
