The Coyotes slipped to their third consecutive loss in a 5-1 route for the Avs, but the team can look towards positive changes in the coming weeks.
Conceding five goals on 39 shots (.872 save percentage), isn’t ideal for the Coyotes’ starting goaltender, but the fact he is back and played through 60 minutes unscathed is something the team can look to build on.
Antti Raanta has been spectacular since arriving in the desert, with a goal against average of 2.27 and a save percentage of .929.
He is a key piece to the puzzle for Rick Tocchet and this one game will be forgotten quickly once the team is able to get back to winning ways.
