GLENDALE, Ariz. -- The Arizona Coyotes felt like they deserved a better fate in the latter stages of their nine-game losing streak. It took nearly 60 minutes for the fates to agree Saturday against the New York Islanders, but a steady diet of hard work finally paid off for Arizona.
Brendan Perlini scored the game-tying goal with 5:55 remaining and Anthony Duclair and Radim Vrbata scored in the shootout as Arizona ended a season-high losing streak one game short of the franchise record with a 2-1 victory over the Islanders.
Arizona hadn't won since Dec. 15 in Toronto.
