Doan, Hanzal may miss Game 3 after big hits
The Coyotes are down two games after being swept on home ice by the Los Angeles Kings, who have now opened three consecutive playoff series with a pair of road wins and appear to be a runaway train with a 10-1 record in the postseason. The question is whether the Coyotes will be down two of their three captains when the series resumes in Los Angeles with Game 3 on Thursday. Both...

Coyotes' big guns firing blanks vs. Kings
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- In the Stanley Cup Playoffs, secondary scoring will only take a team so far.
It got the Coyotes past a Chicago Blackhawks team with no depth and a shaky goaltender in the first round. Then it carried them past a Nashville team that couldn't establish its style and dealt with the distraction of two suspended stars.
But here, in the Western Conference Final...

WHACK-A-KING
Coyotes goalie slashes Dustin Brown
The NHL’s Western Conference Finals series has gotten a bit ugly. The Phoenix Coyotes and Los Angeles Kings clearly don’t like each other and it is starting to show.
Aside from the normal chippy hits that happen from time to time, the Kings have certainly gotten under the skin of the higher-seeded Coyotes. After taking Game 1 in Phoenix, Los Angeles was up 2-0 in Game...

Coyotes Plan To Win The Battles Tonight
from Jerry Brown at NHL.com, “Everybody’s going to work hard. It’s what you do after you get there that matters,” Tippett said. “We were around some battles. But once you get yourself into the battle, it’s the next step: How are you going to win that battle? (Boedker’s goal was) one of the few times we got in, separated somebody from the...

The Understudy knows all the parts: Jason LaBarbera
I wonder if Jason LaBarbera wakes up at 3AM and wonders about how he arrived where he is right now. He’s Mike Smith’s backup, and a goalie who’s been on both teams in the Western Conference finals. (For the bar bet of the week, he’s also tended goal for the Vancouver Canucks and the New York Rangers.) He’s been the #1 goalie in the minors, but other...

Who Is The Broad With Giant Boobs Behind Coyotes Bench?
Got this email last night from Kyle in Scottsdale: “Who in the hell is the redhead behind the coyotes bench? Figured you guys wouldve already invaded her Facebook account.” Of course Kyle is talking about the Double Ds giving the Phoenix Coyotes coaching staff black eyes during the playoffs. Our investigators have yet to hone in on Kyle’s chick so this is where...

Phoenix Coyotes score on slapshot from center ice
If only every center ice slapshot produced results like this!
During the NHL playoffs, you don’t expect ridiculous shots from halfway down the ice to find the back of the net. Watch as Phoenix Coyotes defenseman Derek Morris nails this crazy knucklepuck from center ice on the usually reliable Jonathan Quick. Maybe the Coyotes should have attempted more long-range shots seeing...

Match-Ups May Be Difficult For Phoenix
from Pierre LeBrun of ESPN, The Kopitar unit with Brown and Justin Williams murdered the Coyotes all night long with stretches in the Phoenix defensive zone and created numerous scoring chances aside from the two goals the line produced. The line combined for 15 shots, Brown leading the team with seven and Kopitar had six.
Know this: It’s going to be a short series unless...

NIFTY SLAPPER
Coyotes player scores from center ice
Unless you’re one of the 13 people that watched Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals between the Phoenix Coyotes and the Los Angeles Kings, you missed this little diddy.
Instead of dumping the puck into the Kings’ zone, Coyotes defenseman Derek Morris decided to let one rip at the net. Kings goalie Jonathan Quick wasn’t (say it with me) quick enough. You can...

Kings, Coyotes expecting rough series
Wayne Gretzky provided a big boost to hockey in Los Angeles in eight seasons with the Kings. He did the same during his stint as owner and later coach of the Phoenix Coyotes.
There won't be a lot of carry-over affection once the Great One's former teams meet in the Western Conference finals.
The Kings and Coyotes, Pacific Division rivals, don't like each other much...

Team Anonymity label suits Coyotes just fine
GLENDALE, Ariz. Keith Yandle sounded like Old School character Frank The Tank Ricard when recounting his Wednesday errands.
I went to Best Buy, Home Depot and Frys Grocery Store, Yandle said. I was in each of them for probably a half hour to 45 minutes, and I didnt get recognized once.
Thats two-time NHL All-Star Keith Yandle. You know, the Coyotes assistant captain? The guy whos...

Whitney marks 40 years with gift of perspective
Forty. To some it represents the halfway point in life; the start of the back nine. To Ray Whitney, its just a number. It has no meaning.
None, he said with a quick shake of the head that suggested we should move on to the next topic.
Age hasnt impacted Whitneys play this season. He led the Coyotes with 77 points during the regular season, and he has six points thus far in the...

'Unreal' Smith carries Coyotes to new heights
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- With four seconds on the clock Monday night and the Predators making one last attempt to stay alive in the Western Conference semifinals, Coyotes goaltender Mike Smith sent a clearing attempt 165 feet down the ice toward an empty Nashville net.
Wide right, by about a foot.
"I just said, 'Why'd you miss the net?'" Coyotes coach Dave Tippett...
