Per Coyotes coach Rick Tocchet, recalled F Nick Merkley will not play tonight vs. Pittsburgh. Neither will F Zac Rinaldo (still sick). Lines/pairs/goaltending should look the same as last game.

Coyotes coach Rick Tocchet said forward Christian Fischer had a scan and everything checked out fine. He is stitched up and good to go tonight.

Nick Merkley is skating with Christian Dvorak and Zac Rinaldo. Looks like Duclair and Strome are the extras.

Coyotes coach Rick Tocchet said defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson was sick today (he missed practice), but he is “probable” to play Tuesday against the Florida Panthers.

Coyotes coach Rick Tocchet: "I'm kind of embarrassed for the fans because we had this game and we gave it to them. A couple of individuals, I don't understand what they’re doing on those plays. It's probably as disappointed as I've been in this team all year."

According to @CraigCustance of @TheAthleticDET, the #Coyotes have had nine players reach the #NHL from the last four drafts, which is the most of any #NHL team. #TheProcess

I asked Coyotes coach Rick Tocchet today about Anthony Duclair's absence from the lineup for a second straight game (his 10th healthy scratch this season). Here is what Tocchet said:

Inadvertently deleted my tweet so to reiterate, Anthony Duclair returns to the lineup tonight against Colorado, replacing Brendan Perlini. Antti Raanta starts in goal.
