Good shift by Strome/Domi. Didn't really get control but kept in the zone. Stickybois followed it up with a decent shift as well. Penalty, meh, but at least something actually happened.
Murphy might just be an NHL dman.
Now if we can just get him a better RW than ****ing Tipchura errrrr Rinaldo.
Since we undoubtedly will not have any lottery luck with Dahlin, Svechnikov is my dream scenario at this point.Fingers crossed we're in a position to draft one of Svechnikov/Zadina/Wahlstrom to address that.
Aside of the positives like Raanta doing his thing and Strome playing well, that had to be the most boring 4-1 win I've ever seen.
So what are we talking? Knee again?
Look back at that six game road trip.Coyotes win another game where the opposition didn't show up. I'd be impressed if the Coyotes win big where the opposition did show up and has a big shot at the cup.
I agree. He has to get more involved in those areas, but his over all game is much improved and will only get better with more confidence and experience. He should have been recalled earlier. Our PP is a total disaster. Why? Do the players all of a sudden fall asleep? I still think our puck movement on the PP has to get much better. When we pass fast we cause problems, it's when we sit on the half wall stick handling for an hour the other players stop moving and the other team has a easy time defending.Strome looked great. Very excited. He’s in desperate need of coaching when it comes to what to do with himself defensively in his own zone when the other team has established possession though. Wow he’s ugly in that situation. He’s not bad defensively when things are kind of up for grabs or in the neutral zone. When the opposition gets a forecheck, though, he’s a headless chicken. Haha.
The PP is a travesty. John MacLean coached PPs in the NHL have always been horrible. His track record is atrocious and his being hired was confounding. Tocchet has praised his influence on team culture and that shouldn’t be discounted but he MUST be removed from any involvement with the PP. He’s incompetent in that role. Great motivational speaker it seems. Inarguably an awful pp coach.

Yeah, let’s not forget why Calgary came in totally defeated; it’s because we whipped their asses the other week when they were fighting for their lives and killed the playoff chances. We were the dagger in the heart of their season and they were tooth and nail last time we faced them. But let’s ignore that and focus on only this victory, excluding the previous victories.Right, so the games in Tampa and Vegas last week totally didn’t happen...
Truth is they outplayed us, look at the shots 43-21. They showed up in a big way. They made a few costly mistakes and our goal tending was much better.Coyotes win another game where the opposition didn't show up.

Our PP: The puck dies on somebody's stick, that is the problem. Once the puck dies the D adjusts. They need to keep it moving.I agree.
