Final
Doan, Coyotes looking to sweep home-and-home series
Dec 27, 2008 - 11:35 AM Los Angeles (14-15-6) at Phoenix (17-14-5), 9:00 pm ESTGLENDALE, Arizona (Ticker) -- Shane Doan loves playing the Los Angeles Kings.
Doan seeks another good performance Saturday against when the Phoenix Coyotes face the Kings in the second game of a home-and-home series.
The 32-year-old captain scored a goal and set up another to lead the Coyotes to a 2-1 victory over Los Angeles on Friday.
Doan has more career points against the Kings than any other team, notching 22 goals and 35 assists against Los Angeles during his 13 NHL seasons - all spent with the Coyotes franchise.
"We play them a lot," Doan said. "It's a tough building for me to play in it seems, but somehow I've found points."
Peter Mueller ended a 21-game goal drought and Ilya Bryzgalov made 24 saves for the Coyotes, who improved to 5-1-3 over their last nine games. Bryzgalov is 6-0-0 against Los Angeles in his career.
Defenseman Peter Harrold netted his fourth career goal and Jonathan Quick turned aside 24 shots for the Kings, who have lost five of their last six.
