NEWARK, N.J. --The Coyotes committed two penalties in the third period vs. New Jersey on Saturday night at Prudential Center, and the Devils made them pay for both en route to a 4-3 win.
"One of the biggest things that plagues our team is when the pressure is on, someone makes an ill-advised play," Head Coach Rick Tocchet said of the Coyotes, who dropped to 0-10-1 to start the season.
Max Domi was called for interference and Christian Fischer was called for roughing within the final 20 minutes, and New Jersey parlayed the infractioncs into two power-play goals, turning a 3-2 deficit after two periods into a one-goal win.
"I thought the guys played great, they deserved to win," Tocchet said. "When things go bad, you get two calls against you, and the Devils have a great power play. I thought they were a little flat tonight, but they found a way to win and we didn't."
