Final
Coyotes continue road trip against Sabres
Mar 6, 2009 - 11:15 AM Phoenix (28-31-5) at Buffalo (32-25-7), 7:30 p.m. ESTBUFFALO, New York (Ticker) -- The Phoenix Coyotes continue a five-game road trip on Friday, when they face the Buffalo Sabres.
Phoenix snapped a three-game losing streak with a 2-1 victory over the Eastern Conference-leading Boston Bruins on Thursday.
The win came one day after it traded center Olli Jokinen to the Calgary Flames for Matthew Lombardi, Brandon Prust and a draft pick.
The Coyotes have totaled five goals in their last four contests, and are second-worst in the West with 61 points.
Buffalo is coming off a 5-1 victory over the Montreal Canadiens on Wednesday, when All-Star Thomas Vanek returned to the Sabres' lineup after missing nine games because of a broken jaw.
Vanek did not record any points, but he contributed to helping them to their most prolific output since a 6-5 win against San Jose on February 13.
