Phoenix goalie Ilya Bryzgalov blocks a shot by Anaheim Ducks' Corey Perry during an excellent performance Sunday night. (Henry DiRocco/Associated Press) Rookies Kyle Turris and Mikkel Boedker both scored for the first time in the NHL, and Ilya Bryzgalov made 34 saves against his former Anaheim teammates to lead the visiting Phoenix Coyotes to a 4-2 victory that spoiled the Ducks' home opener Sunday night.
Shane Doan added a pair of goals for Phoenix, off to a 2-0 start. Ryan Carter and George Parros scored for the Ducks. Doan's second goal gave Phoenix a 4-2 lead with 3:40 remaining, and Parros capped the scoring just 13 seconds later.
The Coyotes built a 3-0 lead in the second period before Carter scored for Anaheim.
Ducks' Jean-Sebastien Giguere stopped 20 shots, but was victimized for two goals by shoddy defensive play.
Turris, who also had an assist, and Boedker provided a glimpse of what the new, youthful Coyotes might bring to the rink. Turris was taken by Phoenix with the third pick in the 2007 draft, and Boedker was selected eighth this year.
Still another rookie, former University of Michigan star Kevin Porter, notched his second assist in two games for the Coyotes.
Steven Reinprecht chipped in with two assists.
