Raanta stopped all 18 shots he faced in the third period when the Flames attempted to rally.
"They got lots of shots, but I was able to see almost every shot," Raanta said. "They got their goal from a rebound, but other than that our guys were doing an excellent job in front of the net. (It's) not the perfect game, but I think the biggest thing is sometimes you win when you're not playing your best game. You just find a way to win and we found a way to score goals and get two points."
• Kevin Connauton notched a goal and an assist, both in the first period when the Coyotes set the tone for the game. The goal was Connauton's 11th of the season and his 10th since Feb. 1. That goal total is tops among NHL defensemen during that time span.
"I'm playing a lot more confident, using my skating, using my shot," Connauton said. "I had a rough year last year with injuries and then sitting out. So the beginning of the year, I was still trying to get back to my game, but I think I'm back there now."
• Christian Fischer scored a greasy goal from in front of the net at 2:18 of the second period to end a 31-game goal-scoring drought. Fischer shot the puck on goal and it rebounded off goalie Jon Gillies and then off defenseman Rasmus Andersson and into Calgary's net.
"It's funny how it goes in like that when I've had five breakaways the last three games," Fischer said. "It's good to go in. Stuff always creeps into your mind. Everyone goes through it at some point."
Despite the goal-scoring lull, Fischer, a rookie, ranks tied for fourth on the team with 14 goals.
