The win streak is broken in painful, slow, torturous fashion.
The first five minutes were pretty stock standard Ducks play as of late; good zone exits and entries, casual cycle but no real scoring chances. Then a Coyotes rush into the Ducks zone resulted in Miller being caught out of position when Fowler failed to get out of the crease. The Coyotes Jason Demers then retrieved the puck from the point and flung it on net where it sailed softly high over Millers right shoulder.
1 - 0 Coyotes 5 minutes in.
Anaheim didn't let it get to them and continued to hold possession but were mostly kept to the perimeter.
