Coyotes head coach Rick Tocchet offered a succinct summation of his team’s effort in a 3-1 loss to the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday at Gila River Arena.
“Garbage,” Tocchet said.
“I liked our first and we had some chances and (Ducks goaltender Ryan Miller) played well but other than that it was garbage to be honest with you,” Tocchet said. “We’re not going to win them all and we like what’s been going on here, but our second and third periods were not good. We needed more out of some guys.
“We didn’t get energy from some guys that are going to have to play if we’re going anywhere.
