Coyotes' Darcy Kuemper: Solid in defeat

The 28-year-old netminder played well despite being saddled with the loss. Unfortunately, the goalie at the other end was even better and Keumper's team was only able to solve Devan Dubnyk once. Playing his first game of the season, Kuemper showed he has what it takes to give his team a chance to win. That said, Antti Raanta is likely to see the majority of the workload this season.

Coyotes' Darcy Kuemper: Making season debut

Kuemper wasn't great in limited action with the Coyotes last campaign, posting a 2-6-2 record while registering a sub-par 3.22 GAA and .899 save percentage in 10 appearances. The 28-year-old netminder will hope to fare better and pick up a win in his season debut Tuesday in a road matchup with a struggling Wild team that's only averaging 2.40 goals per game this campaign, 22nd in the NHL.

Coyotes' Darcy Kuemper: Starting preseason finale

Kuemper may be getting the start in the preseason finale, but once the games count he will be backing up Antti Raanta. The 28-year-old was playing stellar hockey for the Kings last year, but after being traded to the desert he posted a 3.22 GAA and .899 save percentage. He will hope to improve upon that once the games start counting.

Coyotes' Darcy Kuemper: Suffers preseason defeat Monday

Kuemper gave up one goal in the first period and two more in the second, with the Ducks adding an empty-netter in the third. He posted a 2.10 GAA in 19 appearances as the Kings' backup last season but a much uglier 3.22 mark in 10 games after moving to Arizona, so Kuemper will be hoping for better results in his first full season as the Coyotes' No. 2 netminder.

Coyotes' Darcy Kuemper: Starting against Anaheim

In his last outing, Kuemper let in just three goals on 41 shots against the Kings. After splitting time with Vegas and Arizona last season, the 6-foot-5 netminder will serve as Antti Raanta's primary backup for the 2018-19 campaign. He has averaged less than 20 starts per season over the last three years and likely won't provide much fantasy value.
