GLENDALE, Ariz. — The streak ends with a letdown in the desert.
The Arizona Coyotes played the role of spoilers Wednesday night, snapping the Sharks seven-game winning streak with a 6-3 win on home ice. The Coyotes took advantage of a Sharks group that was playing the second game of a back-to-back after an emotional win over the Pittsburgh Penguins and a flight out to Arizona.
The Sharks probably deserve a get-out-of-jail-free card for this one. They were due for a loss after opening the month of January with a 7-0 record following a loss in Calgary on New Year’s Eve.
