Coyotes' Darcy Kuemper: Strong game but gets little help

He has lost both games since he returned from injury, but in this case he got almost no offensive support. Kuemper will be the go-to guy until Antti Raanta returns, but beware the Desert Dawgs' inability to score. Arizona goalies need to be nearly perfect most games.

Coyotes' Darcy Kuemper: Defending net Thursday

With Adin Hill falling off a bit in his last couple starts, Kuemper will be afforded his second straight start in the crease. He surrendered four goals to the Bruins on Tuesday, but he catches the Sabres at the right time, with the opposition in the midst of losing five of its last six games.

Coyotes' Darcy Kuemper: Loses to Bruins

The 28-year-old has actually experienced a few incredible games lately, and even still, he's gone just 2-3-1 with a .909 save percentage in the last six contests. The two games he won during that stretch, Kuemper needed to stop 38 of 39 shots and 44 of 45 attempts in each game. Prior to Tuesday, Kuemper was at least contributing solid numbers in the save percentage category, but after this one, that dropped to .909. He is also 4-6-2 with a 2.82 GAA.

With Antti Raanta's season in jeopardy due to a lower-body injury, the Coyotes' crease gig is open for bidding, and Keumper, having recently been taken off injured reserve, is looking for his first win in nearly a month. On the season, the 28-year-old is 4-5-2 with a 2.71 GAA and .914 save percentage.

Coyotes' Darcy Kuemper: May play Tuesday

Finally, some good news for the Coyotes in net, as recently we learned that Antti Raanta (lower body) may be out the rest of the season. Adin Hill has done an impressive job with both Raanta and Kuemper out, but Arizona would likely be happy to have Kuemper in its lineup over Calvin Pickard, the current backup.
