WASHINGTON — The road doesn’t get any easier Sunday for the Arizona Coyotes.After being shutout 4-0 by the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday night the Coyotes travel to play the Washington Capitals in a 5 p.m. ET start at Capital One Arena.Arizona (7-7-1) has lost three straight games after a five-game winning streak.Article continues below ...The Penguins broke a scoreless tie with three second-period goals http://www.sabresshoponline.com/authentic-kyle-okposo-jersey , including one by Sidney Crosby, who later added an assist.“I had a good start and then they scored three in the second there,” Coyotes goalie Darcy Kuemper told NHL.com. “That was kind of too big of a hole to come back. I don’t think anyone’s happy, for sure. But we just have to make sure we’re not getting overly frustrated. Kind of use it as motivation to get back out there and have our best game in a while.”Kuemper, who was starting in place of Antti Raanta (lower body injury) made 27 saves. He has allowed at least four goals in each of his last three starts.The Coyotes had a four-minute power play late in the second period but were unable to convert.“It looked like they were a little tense on that,” Coyotes coach Rick Tocchet said. “You get one there maybe you get some juice. Didn’t like that four minute. Didn’t see a lot of leading going on out there. It was discouraging for us.”Pittsburgh’s Casey DeSmith made 39 saves.Washington is the third stop in a four-game Arizona road trip.The Capitals had won two straight before Friday’s 2-1 loss to the visiting Columbus Blue Jackets.Sergei Bobrovsky outdueled Braden Holtby in a game in which all three goals came on power plays. Columbus converted 2 of 3 chances while Washington was 1-for-6.The Capitals have allowed four power play goals in their last three games.“Right now we just can’t seem to kill a penalty,” Washington defenseman Matt Niskanen said. “In a tight game, that hurts.”Niskanen, filling in for the injured John Carlson in Washington’s top power-play unit, scored the Capitals goal, his third of the season. He also lost his stick while trying to defend against Anthony Duclair, who scored the go-ahead goal on Friday.The Capitals have the NHL’s second-ranked power play (32.7 percent), but they’ll be facing a Coyotes penalty kill that leads the league with nine short-handed goals.“They’re able to really generate some offense and keep teams on their heels Rasmus Ristolainen Jersey ,” Capitals coach Todd Reirden said, “And it’s just important to understand that we have five guys on the ice, they have four, but we still need to outwork them and we still need to make sure we’re in proper position to protect our teammates and not give up any free offense on that.”Arizona boasts the NHL’s top penalty kill (91.5 percent).Carlson missed Friday’s game with a lower body injury. He practiced Saturday and could return against Arizona. Carlson is the NHL’s fourth leading scorer among defensemen with five goals and 18 points.Forward Evgeny Kuznetsov, who is on a six-game point streak, was excused from practice Saturday but is expected to play Sunday.Arizona defenseman Alex Goligoski missed Saturday night’s game due to a lower body injury.Holtby is 4-1 with a 2.80 GAA and .908 save percentage against the Coyotes. WINNIPEG, Manitoba — With the way the Winnipeg Jets and Edmonton Oilers have been playing lately, there’s a very good chance the 1980s could break out at Bell MTS Place Thursday night.All that will be missing will be the classic battles between Wayne Gretzky and Dale Hawerchuk.The Jets have won six of their last seven games, including a 6-3 triumph over the Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday, a game in which they took a 4-0 lead, let up on the gas temporarily and then finished off the win with an empty-net marker. They have scored 13 goals in the past two games, including none from sniper Patrik Laine.Article continues below ...At one point late in the first period, the Jets led the Blackhawks 14-0 in shots.The Oilers Greg Pateryn Jersey Womens , meanwhile, come to town having won seven of their last eight games, including an impressive 6-4 road victory over the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday. They have also been lighting the lamp in ’80s fashion of late, including seven times in a victory over Minnesota last week.Perhaps most importantly, they are an impressive 8-2-1 since Ken Hitchcock assumed the reins behind the bench last month from Todd McLellan.The 66-year-old Hitchcock, who was coaxed out of retirement by the Oilers, is happy with his team’s turnaround — they’re in the thick of the Western Conference’s wild-card race just a couple of weeks after sitting near the cellar of the Pacific Division — but he’s still not satisfied. “We’re going to need more contributions from more people if we expect to be a playoff team,” he said following Tuesday’s game. “We’re going to push in that direction.”And the Jets are going to push back, particularly when other teams end up in the penalty box.They have struck gold six times in the last two games with the man advantage, improving their efficiency to 30.3 percent, and reestablishing it as the top power play in the league. In fact, defenseman Dustin Byfuglien’s power-play marker in the first period came just five seconds into the man advantage, the fourth time this season the Jets have needed less than nine seconds to make their opponents pay.The center of the No. 1 unit Womens Luke Kunin Jersey , Mark Scheifele, said he has every intention of keeping the good times rolling.“We know we have a good power play. It’s just a matter of executing, and lately, we’ve been executing. We just have to keep focusing on those fine details,” he said in a postgame scrum.Jets head coach Paul Maurice didn’t think his team sat back as the Blackhawks narrowed the deficit on Tuesday, briefly trimming the lead to 4-3 before the Jets scored one of their power-play markers.“I’m not expecting it to be 12-0 by the end of the game,” he said. “When you have the number of Stanley Cup rings that they have in that room, they’re going to come out and push hard.“When it’s 4-3, anything can happen. Every single shot that goes to the net either way. But (Blackhawks goalie) Cam Ward made two or three great saves at the end of the second period and a couple more. And we missed the net on a bunch. I didn’t feel the game changed nearly as much as it felt on the shot clock or the scoreboard.”
