Dylan Guenther scored once and added two assists as the Arizona Coyotes defeated the Washington Capitals 4-2 Sunday afternoon.
Guenther, Nick Schmaltz, Logan Cooley, Michael Kesselring and Jason Zucker all scored for the Coyotes (25-31-5). Schmaltz also had an assist for a two-point game and Karel Vejmelka made 24 saves in Arizona’s second straight win.
Anthony Mantha and Sonny Milano both recorded the goals in the Capitals’ (28-23-9) loss. Charlie Lindgren stopped 23 shots.
From 100-plus feet away in the Coyotes’ defensive zone, Guenther fired a cross-ice pass to Cooley for a breakaway. All alone, Cooley went from his backhand to the forehand and sniped for a 1-0 Arizona lead.
