After a miserable night in Colorado, the Carolina Hurricanes enjoyed a brighter day Monday in Arizona.
The Canes beat the Coyotes 5-3 at Gila River Arena, which was a good thing. Carolina (49-20-8), which had a season-high 52 shots, ended a two-game losing streak and moved back into a two-point lead over the New York Rangers in the Metropolitan Division, another good thing for the Canes.
“We’ll take the two points for sure,” Canes coach Rod Brind’Amour said. “We needed it.”
