Bruins Fall on Last-Minute Goal in Arizona (NHL.com)

TEMPE, Ariz. - Nick Foligno tied the game late in the third period, but the Bruins fell to the Arizona Coyotes, 4-3, on Friday night at Mullett Arena when ...

"It was a bit of a different game, different flow. "We found a way to battle in the game," said Foligno. "Obviously not the start that you want," said Bergeron. Crouse then tallied his first of two goals 2:52 after that to knot things up, once again, while setting the stage for the Coyotes to take a 3-2 lead on Nick Schmaltz's goal 53 seconds into the third. "I actually couldn't believe it," said Foligno. Arizona's Matias Maccelli tracked down the loose puck and found Crouse to the right of Jeremy Swayman where the Coyotes winger hammered a one-timer home for the lead.

3 takeaways after Coyotes ice Bruins (Boston.com)

Here's what we learned after the Coyotes snapped their 19-game drought against the Bruins dating back to the 2010-11 season.

That seemed to be the case tonight — where a little play where you don’t get it in or they have a little bit of life, and they think they’re in the game.” The linesman is there to make a decision based on a fraction of a second,” Bergeron noted. Foligno put the Bruins in position to nab at least one point with his tying marker at 14:31 of the final frame. Some players compared the Mullet Arena surroundings to similar venues of their collegiate or junior hockey days. Now they’ll enter bounce-back mode for the second time in three games when they travel to Vegas hoping to avenge Instead, an official’s split-second interpretation left the Bruins without anything to show for their effort. They remained aggressive in 5v5 situations, generating multiple quality looks and cashing in during the middle frame on a gritty Charlie Coyle goal. As Arizona cleared the puck from the defending end in the closing seconds, Jeremy Swayman opted not to play the puck in hopes of fielding an icing call with Derek Forbort clearly in the vicinity. The Bruins still fought and clawed their way to tie things up in the third. But Montgomery’s squad remained aggressive in the attacking end from the get-go. With Forbort and Charlie McAvoy near the goal line, Macceli promptly found Lawson Crouse for a wide-open one-timer. An assertive Mattias Macceli pounced on the loose puck after Forbort struggled to corral the rubber biscuit.

Talking Points: Strange Ending Sinks Boston Bruins In Arizona (Boston Hockey Now)

The Boston Bruins watched as a much-discussed icing call went against them on the final play of the game in a 4-3 loss to Arizona.

As it turns out it wasn’t the right choice as Swayman gave up four goals on 16 shots and was outplayed by Vejmelka. GOLD STAR: Arizona Coyotes netminder Karel Vejmelka was the difference-maker in a game where the Boston Bruins outshot the Coyotes by 46-16 margin over the course of the game.

Before a Friday meeting at Mullett Arena, the last time the Coyotes had beaten the Boston Bruins was Oct. 9, 2010 in Prague, Czechia, when they won 5-2 ...

“When you play at 11-7, that gives you the opportunity to reward guys who deserve it, and to have versatility in the sense that if you want more rugged lines, you can put a rugged player there. If the deal doesn’t materialize, he can bide his time, and that has been his track record for his entire 27-month tenure as GM. The other concern that GMs may have about Chychrun is his long list of injuries, which includes both knees, a shoulder, an ankle, and a wrist. Philadelphia received forward Owen Tippett, a first-round pick in the 2024 NHL Draft or 2025 NHL Draft, and a third-round pick in the 2023 NHL Draft. Chychrun’s expected goals for (6.3) after just eight games was a rate that would lead the team if he had played all 24 games — and that’s as a defenseman. The Bruins held their morning skate at the arena and their buses were backed up to the annex. After starting the season hot with six goals and eight points in his first 11 games, he has two assists in his past 11 games. He left the door open and coach André Tourigny had to close it for him while the rest of Ritchie’s teammates stayed on the ice. He logged just 12:28 of ice time, but he had four hits and saw significant time on the power play. The Bruins outshot the Coyotes 15-6 in the first period and 23-6 in the second. With two more goals on Friday, Crouse leads the team with 12 and is on pace for 39, which would shatter his personal best of 20 set last season before he signed his five-year, $21.5 million deal. The Coyotes had their share of critics when they signed Crouse to that deal this summer.

Boston Bruins fans were perplexed Friday night when a non-icing call led to the game-winning goal for the Arizona Coyotes at Mullet Arena.

I don’t understand how at that point in the game it would be anything different. Matias Maccelli got control of the puck and passed it over to Lawson Crouse who scored the game-winner with just Jeremy Swayman decided to not play the puck in hopes of getting the call, but the official waved it off.

Arizona Coyotes give Bruins their 4th regulation loss of the season (Five for Howling)

The Arizona Coyotes' losing streak is over as they beat the Boston Bruins 4-3 in regulation.

However, Arizona killed that one, and the Coyotes kept their lead, for now. Vejmelka deserves a lot of credit for stopping 43 shots, which kept the team in the game despite their many stupid penalties. The Coyotes killed that and got on the board again with another early goal from Nick Schmaltz. Keller passed the puck up to Schmaltz, who fired it past Swayman, and the Coyotes regained their lead. Halfway through the final frame, Nick Schmaltz was in the box for tripping, and the Bruins had their sixth power play. But with seconds left in regulation, what initially looked like icing was waved off as the puck hit the net. The Coyotes could have used that goal because it didn’t take long for the Bruins to get on the board. Arizona did have a golden opportunity to retake the lead when they got their third power play of the game just under 15 minutes in, but they failed to convert again. Arizona would get a power play of their own not long after when Taylor Hall was called for tripping, but they couldn’t regain the lead. Just under five minutes in, Karel Vejmelka made a massive save, and in the resulting pushing and shoving, Liam O’Brien was sent to the box for roughing. Also, the Coyotes getting offensive from their defensemen would be a running theme in this game. Not only is their 14-game road trip over, but their losing streak is too as the Desert Dogs beat the [Boston Bruins](https://www.stanleycupofchowder.com) 4-3 in regulation.

Three Takeaways From Bruins' Last-Second Loss To Coyotes (NESN.com)

The Bruins lost in heartbreaking fashion Friday night when a non-icing call led Lawson Crouse to bury the game-winner with 14 seconds left.

“It was a bit of a different game, different flow. “I wanna make sure that I’m keeping it one shot at a time and making saves when I need to,” Swayman told reporters after the game. “Obviously not the start that you want,” Bergeron told reporters. It shouldn’t matter,” Montgomery told reporters after the game. Jeremy Swayman put his hand up as if the icing call was going to come, but it never did. It looked as if the Bruins were going to get the icing call and have an offensive zone faceoff with 17 seconds left and a prime opportunity to break the 3-3 tie.

NHL roundup: Late Arizona goal finishes, frustrates Bruins (pressherald.com)

The Coyotes score with 13.5 seconds left after an icing call is waved off and the Bruins fail to get the puck out of danger.

The Stars won late in overtime for the second time in less than 48 hours. They had been been 0-5 in games past regulation before a 4-3 win over Ottawa on Thursday night, when Tyler Seguin scored with 29 seconds left in OT. Louis forward Scott Nichol with the bottom of his skate. The second cross-check was to Guentzel’s face just below his visor. This is the second suspension of Skinner’s 13-year career. It appeared the teams were headed to the 3 on 3 overtime but disaster struck. But then the linesman is there to make a decision based on a fraction of second. Because that’s the last thing you want to do. The two exchanged slashes before Skinner cross-checked Guentzel twice. And though they might have been robbed of at least a point, the Bruins didn’t do what they almost always have done this year — win the third period. And they can thank goalie Karel Vejmelka (43 saves) for the victory. The Bruins fumbled the puck when an icing call was waived off at the last instant.

- It’s a shame too because, outside of everything else...I think Mullett Arena kinda rules as a destination to watch a game. - We should, again, hope that the Coyotes ownership group decides paying Vejmelka is a better use of their time than however many picks he could command on the open market. Regardless, the B’s blinked, and the Yotes capitalized. There’s nothing to really say about the team’s effort... It’s easy to let the blinders of the year allow you to forget that even in his rise to prominence, he had games exactly like this one just a year ago. I went looking for a good reason, it seems like the rulebook for this year has something about the puck gliding through the blue paint in front of the goalie, but I’m not sure it ever made it there.
