Arizona Coyotes coach André Tourigny said the team enjoyed its trip to Tucson - the only thing missing was a come-from-behind victory.
Liam O'Brien scored and Christian Fischer added a late goal, but the Coyotes' third-period rally came up just short as they fell 3-2 to the Anaheim Ducks on Sunday at Tucson Arena. It was the team's second preseason game in Tuscon - the first was exactly five years ago on Sept. 25, 2017, also against the Ducks.
Goalies Karel Vejmelka and Anson Thornton split time in net for Arizona, with Vejmelka stopping 15 of 18 shots through two periods of play, while Thornton was 6-for-6 in the third period.
