I live in Calgary now, and I must say that it was very nice to see the Coyotes come into town and play very well against the Flames. There has been so much talk around here about how well the Flames are playing it was nice to settle all of that excitement down.
Ok, I'm not going to jinx the team, but if the Coyotes win tonight in Edmonton and St. Louis loses to Dallas tonight, the Coyotes will be tied with St. Louis and Colorado with 47 points in the 8th place. St. Louis would be 8th, Phoenix 9th, and Colorado 10th because the first tie break is games played and St. Louis has played one less game than Phoenix.

Wow!
So amazing just to ponder that. I hope the Coyotes have a great second half and are able to avoid the three and four game losing streaks.
Great way to bounce back tonight. Vancouver just couldn't handle the speed and checking of the Coyotes.
Jovanovski was hitting guys left and right all night. He dropped three in the span of a few seconds, then for once has the intelligence to not retaliate when a Canuck clotheslined him in return, then scored on the ensuing power play. Doan had a great hit near the Canuck crease to set up Mueller's outstanding goal, roofing it from close range.
This team is really starting to develop some chemistry. Winnik made a great pass while lying on his back to Doan, who managed to fire the puck to Kapanen who scored on the backhander. There were several times where the Coyotes managed to put together excellent shifts and kept sustained pressure in the offensive zone. They outworked Vancouver for much of the night, and they're going to need to keep doing that to have a shot at the playoffs.
