Coyotes' Teemu Pulkkinen: Scores in debut with new club

Pulkkinen celebrated his Coyotes debut with a goal and three shots Thursday, although the team still suffered a 6-3 loss in Buffalo.

Acquired on Monday from Minnesota, he skated just 10:55, the lowest mark among Arizona forwards, which isn't a very promising indicator of ongoing production. That said, the Coyotes are going absolutely nowhere, so it wouldn't be surprising for them to give young guys like Pulkkinen some extra ice time down the stretch. He certainly possesses the talent to capitalize if that happens.
