After scoring the shootout winner against the Seattle Kraken for a 4-3 victory, Arizona Coyotes center Nick Bjugstad reflected on his team fighting all the way to the end of the game, praising his line-mates Matias Maccelli and Lawson Crouse, preparing for a five-game road-trip and more.

With that assist, Bjugstad extended his point streak to seven games.
When talking about scoring the lone goal in the shootout against Seattle, Bjugstad jokingly was not going to express his techniques on how he is almost always successful in the breakaway deciders.
“I don’t want to give the secret away,” Bjugstad said while laughing. “I am not going to tell you how I keep doing it, but there are two moves I make during an entry. Basically, it goes off of how the goalie is sitting and it is working right now.”
