Canucks VS Coyotes Live Stream: Watch Online Free Friday 10:10 ET Two Top-Tier Teams Slug It Out In Vancouver
Canucks vs Coyotes live stream: Watch online free Friday 10:10 ET for the second meeting of the season.
The 16-8-4 Coyotes go on the road to Vancouver vs the 15-10-5 Canucks in what is the second of five meetings this season in a Western Conference divisional rivalry. It was a 3-2 shootout victory vs the Coyotes for the Canucks.
Vancouver has won two in a row while Phoenix lost 4-1 vs the Flames. Defenseman Keith Yandle scored to give the Coyotes a lead in the first period. But that was all the Coyotes could get.
"I think we dominated that first period, so kind of unlucky to come out tied 1-1," Yandle said. "But at the same time, you have to come out in the second with a little more jump. We knew they were going to push back and we've got to do a better job there."
The Canucks now start a five-game homestand where Vancouver is 5-5-3. They ended a four-game road trip going 3-1, including a 3-1 victory over the Predators.
"We played well enough to win back-to-back games the last couple weeks, but it didn't happen," captain Henrik Sedin told the team's official website. "We feel better about ourselves now."
Two nights after scoring twice and getting the game-winner in a 3-2 victory over Carolina, Kesler did the same Tuesday with two third-period goals from close range in a 3-1 win over Nashville, according to ESPN.com. Ryan Kessler scored his team-high 14th goal of the season.
"Kesler has been playing really well, he was probably our best player tonight," coach John Tortorella said after Tuesday's win. "He put us on his shoulders there and I thought led the way."
"It was a battle and there wasn't a lot of room out there, but we found a way to win again, and that's what we need to keep doing," Kesler said. "You've got to fight to get to those tough areas and we did tonight."
