Coyotes Game 55 Recap: Schmaltz sets franchise record with 7 points as Coyotes beat Sens 8-5

The Arizona Coyotes beat the Ottawa Senators today in what has to be one of the craziest games I’ve seen in the 11 years I’ve been writing for Five For Howling. If nothing else, it broke records from before I started writing on FFH.

It didn’t take long for things to get crazy. The Coyotes went to the power play just over four minutes in when Nikita Zaitsev was called for holdings. Almost immediately, you could tell this wasn’t going to be a standard Coyotes’ game.

Arizona won the opening draw, and Shayne Gostisbehere picked up the puck and fired it from the point.
