In just the first two games of the young season, the Arizona Coyotes have allowed 10 goals, can’t win a face-off to save their lives, and cannot sustain offensive zone time.
Oh, did I also mention Mike Smith is hurt already?
The exciting “Coyotes 2.0” campaign was supposed to energize fans, but after the first two games, the on-ice product has left fans with some rather uneven play and lots of questions.
In particular, the team’s poor play starts with the defense, most notably Alex Goligoski and Jamie McBain.
