The Coyotes' offense rallied behind goaltender Karel Vejmelka's 41 saves and responded in a 3-1 win over the Florida Panthers on Tuesday night.
For the first time at Mullett Arena, the Arizona Coyotes were able to back up their stellar goaltending with a well-rounded game.
“I feel pretty good and I want to play every game and when I got a chance to play, I just want to enjoy it and help to win," Vejmelka said. “We played really good in our zone and we blocked a lot of shots, it’s a big part of it and I really enjoyed this game," Vejmelka said.The prowess of the power play has carried the Coyotes in the first nine games of the season. That strength was locked in on Tuesday, with Arizona scoring twice with the man-advantage.
It got even more tense for Panthers goaltender Spencer Knight in the third period when the Panthers were shorthanded again at 7:40. Knight turned away two shots, and Gustav Forsling blocked three more. Following Travis Boyd’s faceoff win, Moser and Clayton Keller set up Ritchie in the high slot and he rang it home for a 2-1 lead.
