The Coyotes stun the Canucks, 5-4

The Coyotes have cooled a bit since the last time they played Vancouver, but that only makes these games more important. Going into the match up on Wednesday, not many people would've anticipated that this game would have a total of nine goals scored. Both Luongo and Smith have played well, but Vancouver would score two goals in the first ten minutes and Phoenix would answer with two goals in the next ten minutes. Phoenix would then keep on pushing the pace of the game and eventually score the game winner off of an Antoine Vermette power play goal in the third period. This is a good sign for the Coyotes, since they are on a crucial road trip with Vancouver being their toughest test.

Coyotes end February with an 12 game point streak, beat the Canucks, 2-1 SO

The Coyotes have a knack for making February runs. This year is no different. The Phoenix Coyotes avenged their lone loss (in OT) against the Vancouver Canucks by returning the favor on Tuesday night. The Canucks would show they were one of the NHL's best by jumping out to an early lead in the first period. However, the Coyotes would show they were one of the NHL's hottest by tying the game late. The game would then go to OT and then to a SO, where the Coyotes would win off of a Mikkel Boedker goal past Cory Schneider. This caps off one of the greatest months of hockey for a team as Phoenix earned 23 of the 24 possible points in February.

Canucks blank the Coyotes, 5-0

Maybe the Yotes ate too many turkeys on Thanksgiving cause they laid an egg and the Canucks ripped them apart. Out-shot and routed, the crowd at Jobing.com Arena didn't seem to mind since half of the folks in attendance were Canucks themselves. Mike Smith was overwhelmed by the peppering of shots by the Canucks offense while Cory Schnieder had a quite night and an easy shut-out.
