You include an exclamation mark in your username and yet omit end punctuation from two of three sentences in this post. Very strange. Coyotes lose!

I want to see the Flames smash the Coyotes from beginning to end.

I feel they got away with one last time we played them, beginning with the Rittich oopsies

Oliver Ekman-Larsson - Jason Demers
Jakob Chychrun - Alex Goligoski
Ilya Lyubushkin - Jordan Oesterle

Starting goalie is not confirmed but if I had to guess, I'd say it'll be Antti Raanta.
I know Kessel hasn't been doing so hot, but he's a 3rd liner on THAT roster?

Can't fault the team/coach though. The team is doing well.

To be fair, Gaudreau is a third-liner on this roster (on paper).

Kessel is second among Coyotes forwards in average TOI, at 17:55/night. Only Derek Stepan plays more.

Neither are noted team leading goal scorers.

This is definitely a team playing well together and not looking for one particular person to do all the scoring.

Garland is pretty good. He burst onto the scene midway through last season and has 25 goals in 79 games to begin his career.

He's avoided recognition by playing in Arizona but I think he deserves more credit for his play.

I have a bit of a bad feeling about this one. The Flames played really hard last night, so I could see them being tired going into Arizona.

Was going to comment about a long flight, but I'm absolutely shocked to see how far south Denver is. I guess I always associate Colorado with the Rocky Mountains, which I always associate with being in Canada.

I get where you're coming from but....Canada, and North America, is kind of a big place.

I think this is going to be a tough one.
1-0, or 2-1 kind of game... Maybe OT to really annoy Oilers fans.

2-1 flames in OT.

The Coyotes have enjoyed one of the easier schedules in the NHL so far this season. This is going to catch up with them starting tonight.

37–0 Flames.

Lol I know that, which is exactly why it's easy to misplace an entire state. I just never thought of Colorado as a Southern state. I always associated it more with Montana or the Dakotas. I guess culturally you could say it's still more in line with the other Rocky Mountain states.

Thats what I said too, but then I noticed their leading goal scorer is on the fourth line???? The Coyotes make no sense.

I kinda hope this one goes to OT, just to see Oiler fans squirm. But a win in regulation would be much sweeter of course.

Go Flames!

I'd like to see a regulation win and an Oilers regulation loss. That would leave the Oilers and Coyotes tied with the Flames 2 points back and people in Edmonton clenching their butts.

Flames win 4-2 with an empty netter.

Canes win 5-3 over Edmonton.

I was thinking he must be on the PP, but Garland only has 2 PP goals out of his 12.

Kid's 5'8" 163". I really have't watched him at all.

ETA: I actually think he's been playing with Dvorak/Schmaltz a fair bit so it's not like he's permanent 4th line.

The coyotes have seemingly come out of nowhere this year but I hope the players are taking this game seriously because the coyotes are a good team that can't seem to shake the stigma of being boring even though they have been quite entertaining this year.
