Coyotes Tracks - November 7, 2011 - A Break in the Action

With the Coyotes not playing again until Thursday things are a bit light news wise.  Kyle Turris continues to be a hot topic and not just in Phoenix.  In addition to Coyotes news, we've got links to recaps of some of Sunday's games including a much needed win by Portland.

There are only two games on the NHL schedule this evening.  The Islanders play the bruins on Versus at 5 p.m. MST and the Kings face the Sharks at 8:30pm MST.
