Arizona Coyotes Stage Remarkable Comeback to Overpower Vegas Golden Knights
In a thrilling matchup at Tempe, Arizona, the Coyotes orchestrated a stunning third-period rally, scoring six unanswered goals to outclass the Vegas Golden Knights with a 7-4 victory on Friday night. Spearheaded by Michael Carcone’s two goals and Alex Kerfoot’s impressive performance with one goal and one assist, Arizona showcased resilience and determination in mounting an extraordinary comeback against the defending Stanley Cup champions.
Trailing 4-1 early in the third period, the Coyotes ignited their offense with an explosive burst, netting three goals in a mere 67 seconds to level the score. Carcone then delivered the pivotal go-ahead goal with 5:13 remaining, capitalizing on a fortuitous bounce off a defender’s skate to put Arizona in front. The Coyotes continued to pile on the pressure, adding two more goals to seal the emphatic victory and stun the Golden Knights.
Josh Doan, Nick Bjugstad, Josh Brown, and Logan Cooley also contributed to Arizona’s offensive onslaught, showcasing the depth and resilience of the Coyotes’ lineup. With goaltender Karel Vejmelka delivering a solid performance with 20 saves, the Coyotes showcased their determination to overcome adversity and secure a memorable win.
Despite William Karlsson’s strong performance for Vegas, including a goal and an assist, and contributions from Jack Eichel, Anthony Mantha, and Chandler Stephenson, the Golden Knights were unable to withstand Arizona’s relentless attack. Goalie Logan Thompson made 25 saves for Vegas, but it wasn’t enough to halt the Coyotes’ remarkable comeback.
With this impressive victory, the Coyotes improved their record to 32-39-5, accumulating 69 points in the standings. Meanwhile, the Golden Knights, who had been riding a three-game winning streak, suffered a setback in their quest for Pacific Division supremacy, falling to 42-26-8 with 92 points.
