One of the Arizona Coyotes' strengths earlier in the season had been their penalty kill. But it's an issue now after Monday's loss to the Minnesota Wild.
The Wild scored two goals in three power plays, and came away with a 5-2 win over the Coyotes to improve to 6-1 against Arizona this season. The Coyotes got Christian Fischer's first goal of the season and a goal from defenseman Alex Goligoski, but their penalty kill is just 1 for its last 7 with at least one power play goal allowed in four straight games.
The Coyotes (20-21-5) have lost six of their last seven games.
