Shane Doan and Boyd Gordon scored two goals apiece and the Phoenix Coyotes returned from an 0-3 road trip to rout the Colorado Avalanche 6-1 on Monday.
The performances came the first time the Coyotes played at home since Doan's breakthrough hat trick on Jan. 7, the first time he had scored three times in a game in his 16-year NHL career. Gilbert Brule (JIHL-behr BROO-lay) had a goal and assist for the Coyotes just six days after he was claimed off waivers from Edmonton. Rostislav Klesla scored Phoenix's season-high sixth goal in the third period.
Chris Summers had a pair of assists for his first career NHL points. Chuck Kobasew scored Colorado's lone goal.
Mike Smith had 38 saves to 27 for Semyon Varlamov of the Avalanche.

Its mid-January, which means the Coyotes have made it through one of the most murderous stretches the NHL has ever concocted.
Weve had a 25-game stretch where only once in that period have we not flown to the next game, whether its flying home or flying away, general manager Don Maloney said. Its been an arduous schedule.
The prevailing sentiment was that if the Coyotes could...

GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) -- Shane Doan needed 16 years to get his first NHL hat trick. He nearly had another less than a week later.
The Phoenix team captain settled for his 40th two-goal game instead and the Coyotes got an outburst of offense from a multitude of contributors in a 6-1 rout of the Colorado Avalanche on Monday.
Boyd Gordon had his first two-goal game in Phoenix's...

Heres how Radim Vrbatas free-agency period evolved this offseason. On July 1, he became unrestricted. On July 2, the Coyotes announced a three-year, 9 million deal to keep the skilled Czech winger in Phoenix.
That was that.
I think we actually signed the deal a few hours after free agency started on the first day, Vrbata said.
Sometimes, you just know a good fit when you see it...

The Avs had a chance, with a win to move over Minnesota and back into the playoffs.
That would be, unless the Avs failed to show up for the game and lost 6-1.
Ray Whitney, Shane Doan and Keith Yandle all turned in two point performances and Mike Smith only gave up one goal on 38 shots despite some really good chances.
For a team that...

Upon mentioning the team name Phoenix Coyotes to a non-hockey fan, the typical response is “Who?” When I mention that I am a Coyotes fan to any hockey follower, it is usually accompanied a comment such as “They haven’t been moved to Canada yet?” or I may just receive a laugh at my expense. Fact is, the team’s future in the desert is tenuous at best, with rumors of...

I love day games. I wish none of us had to work and all games could be during the day. It was a great game at that too. The Coyotes haven't been playing badly these last few games but for whatever reason they just couldn't get a lot of wins. Yesterday was a great game/effort by all Coyotes on the ice. I don't think there was one guy who wasn't playing balls to the...

From time to time I like to dream up trades involving the Canucks. Sometimes realistic, sometimes not. Today I’d like to take a crack at some realistic ones.
Firstly, a bit of background. Mike Gillis was on the Team 1040 last week and proclaimed that the Canucks were ‘open for business’ on the trade front and that he wanted to change the ‘change the balance’ of the team...
