The Coyotes move up to 4th in the Central Division with this result, which is their seventh road victory of the season.

“The last two games, I don’t think we wavered,” Arizona coach André Tourigny said. “I think we played solid every game. We’re consistent. I’m happy about the mindset, what we’re trying to do, the focus, the communication on the bench. Everything right now, it’s pretty good.”

The Ducks, on the other side, were pretty lacklustre all along and failed to replicate their impressive 5-2 win over Vegas two days ago.

The only positive was the strong performance from goalie John Gibson, who made 30 saves.
