• Lombardi's career night propels Phoenix over road-weary Oilers

  
  

  Glendale, AZ (Sports Network) - Matthew Lombardi had a career-high five-point night with a pair of goals and three assists, as Phoenix blew out Edmonton, 6-1, for its seventh win in eight games.

  Ilya Bryzgalov turned aside 33 shots for the Coyotes, who bounced back after a 4-0 loss at Dallas on Saturday. This was their fourth straight home victory.

  Robert Lang had a goal and a pair of helpers, while James Vandermeer tallied a goal and an assist.

  Radim Vrbata, playing in his 500th career game, also lit the lamp as did Ed Jovanovski.

  Dustin Penner broke the shutout late in the third period, but the Oilers lost a 10th straight road games, all in regulation. That skid sets a team record breaking the mark most recently set from February 25 - April 5, 2007.

  Jeff Deslauriers made 27 saves in defeat.

  Jovanovski scored midway through the opening period on a one-timer above the left circle, and it became 2-0 with 30.1 seconds left in the same stanza. Shane Doan set a no-look backhand pass behind the net to Lombardi in front, and he lifted the disc over Deslauriers.

  Lombardi scored again 71 seconds into the second, and Vandermeer made it 4-0 at the 5:38 mark.

  Vrbata scored on a backhand breakaway at 4:19 of the third and it went to 6-0 on Lang's ninth of the season at the 11:40 mark on a backhander in the slot.

  Penner netted his 23rd of the season with 4:28 left.
