In their last game, the 'Yotes lost to the Las Vegas Golden Knights 3-1 at T-Mobile Arena on Sept. 29.

Without a majority of their NHL roster making the trip to Vegas, Arizona struggled throughout the night to create much offense.

Besides centers Jack McBain and Travis Boyd, winger Liam O'Brien, goaltender Connor Ingram, and defensemen Troy Stecher and Josh Brown, most of the Coyotes lineup against the Knights consisted of prospects and minor leaguers trying to impress.
