In a series that has featured five straight overtime games, the Phoenix Coyotes will look to finish off the Chicago Blackhawks in Game 6.
The Chicago Blackhawks and Phoenix Coyotes head into Game 6 on Monday night in a series that has gone to overtime in each of the first five games. Chicago received some improved goaltending from Corey Crawford in Game 5, after he let in soft goals in overtime in Games 3 and 4.
The Coyotes are trying to avoid blowing a two-game lead in the series, and they'll look to finish off the Hawks in Chicago, where they have not lost in the series. Phoenix goaltender Mike Smith has carried over his impressive work from the regular season, but he will try to rebound from the Jonathan Toews snipe that beat him in Game 5.
