Coyotes continue OT trend with 4-3 win over Nashville 201204272217802309311-p2

Ray Whitney scored 14:04 into overtime as the Phoenix Coyotes survived another late goal in regulation to open the Western Conference semifinals with a 4-3 victory over the Nashville Predators.

Phoenix was 33-1 when leading after two periods during the regular season, but has struggled to close out playoff games. The Coyotes allowed four tying third-period goals against Chicago in the first round and did it again against the Predators, giving up one to Martin Erat on a power play with 4:42 left.

Mike Smith made 39 saves, Rostislav Klesla had a goal & an assist, and Phoenix won despite being outshot 25-7 after the second period. Radim Vrbata and Mikkel Boedker also scored for the Coyotes, who became the first team in NHL history to have six of their first seven playoff games go to overtime.

Game 2 is set for this Sunday in Phoenix.
