TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — Travis Boyd had two goals and an assist in the third period, Karel Vejmelka stopped 40 shots and the Arizona Coyotes beat the St. Louis Blues 6-2. The Coyotes got off to a shaky start, giving up the first of Pavel Buchnevich’s two goals, but Vejmelka kept them in it with a series of spectacular saves. Christian Fischer and Nick Schmaltz scored to give Arizona a 2-1 lead and Boyd put it away with his two third-period goals. Clayton Keller added a goal and two assists, and Lawson Crouse also scored to give the Coyotes 16 goals in three games against St. Louis this season.
