SAN JOSE, Calif.—Lawson Crouse, Nick Schmaltz, and Clayton Keller had a goal and an assist apiece, and the Arizona Coyotes beat the San Jose Sharks 5–2 on Sunday at SAP Center.

With the game tied 2–2, Arizona’s Dylan Guenther scored a tie-breaking goal just less than five minutes into the third period. Keller added an insurance goal with a slap shot at 14:13 to extend his league-leading point streak to 11 games, and Schmaltz scored into an empty net. Guenther’s go-ahead goal came off a nifty feed by Alex Kerfoot as Guenther was streaking to the net.
