The Arizona Coyotes went into Las Vegas last night hoping for their first win against the expansion Vegas Golden Knights. It would be a tough match. While the Coyotes have been better as of late, Vegas is leading the Pacific Division and has an All-Star goalie. The Coyotes would need to play a tight game like they did against the Tampa Bay Lightning if they were hoping to win, and thankfully they did.
Arizona played an extremely solid game against the Golden Knights. Kevin Connauton notched two goals, including the game winner just over fifteen minutes into the second period, and Richard Panik scored giving him points in six of the past seven games.
