Any game in which a team allows nine goals leads to major concern. But the Arizona Coyotes didn't have much time to dwell on Wednesday's 9-3 loss to the Colorado Avalanche.
They still have eight games left on the current road trip, which has them in Orange County for a pair of games with the Anaheim Ducks starting Friday night.
There's a playoff hunt to stay in. There are lineup and taxi squad decisions to be made. And there is the NHL trade deadline coming up on April 12. If the Coyotes aren't where they are as of prior to games played Friday — just a standings point out of a playoff spot — there could be a shakeup in the roster with deals.
