Unnecessary boarding, looked dangerous, but thankfully nobody was hurt. I doubt there'll be any additional sanctions.

Time to get my drank on.

Still can't believe what just went down.

I did something similar. I don't live in AZ but I flew down to go to the last home game against The Blue Jackets. Unfortunately I have to return back to California tomorrow but I am thinking about coming back down for the playoff games.

Coyotes will arive at "Cutter" at Sky Harbor tonight between 11:30 and 12:00, If anyone wants to go welcome our boys back.

Same here. It's 18 minutes from my house, according to Google... 2802 E. Old Tower Rd., right? Next to Sky Harbor?

[Sindiggy]

anyone else like the play of Stone? I thought he's played terrific the last two games, so what does Tipp do?

[Muppet]

I only just realized that Smitty had an assist on the Vrbata goal. He's on fire!

[Art.Vandelay]

I came up to Minnesota for the game. It was great seeing the look on the guys faces as they left the ice.
When we sat down, a guy wearing a Coyotes jersey sat behind us. Turned out it hf poster DirtyOldMan. Small world!

[TheMurdocktor]

Even on the replay its so sweet.

And on said replay, I saw Doan give a massive hug to OEL and I couldn't help but think to myself...from one captain to a future captain?

I could watch this replay all day every day. Still so much work needed. Tippet - hand shakes and straight to the locker room.

Doaner pointed out Doan handing stick to the fan, that's awesome. Just saw it on replay. God I hope this team stays in AZ, but regardless, PLAYOFFS BABY! BEAT THE HAWKS!

[SniperHF]

So Aucoin was not in again. Is it a real injury or something he'd normally play through? Hrm.

Hope he's back for game 1. Can't afford to lose either he or Klesla in the playoffs. Need those steady guys.

We were on the glass behind the coyotes bench. After the game Doan gave his stick to a kid next to us.

That kid traveled from Iowa for the game. We talked to him before and he told us that Doan is his favorite player. He freaked oit when he got the stick. Texted us this morning and said yesterday was the best day of his life. Doan did something really cool.

Doan's just got so much respect for ALL people.... he really is one hell of a human being.

Not to mention hockey player!

[PHX FireBirds18]

Great to see Boedker finish the season strong. Hopefully he can contribute in the playoffs.

Chicago is sixth in goals, Coyotes are eighteenth

Coyotes have the fifth lowest goals against, and Chicago is 22nd

Phoenix is 8th in 5-5 F/A, and Chicago 14th

Phoenix's PP is 29th and Chicago's 26th

Phoenix's PK is 8th and Chicago's is 27th

Phoenix is 5th in hits and Chicago is 30th

Both teams are very disciplined as far as penalties go and both are good in the face off department.
