He was taken to a hospital and the game was postponed.The 26-year-old Cunningham played 10 games for the Coyotes last season.All I can say is as a group in here, were thinking about him and his family, goalie Mike Smith said.

Tobias Rieder and Max Domi also scored for the Coyotes, who ended a four-game skid and played into overtime for the third straight game.Smitty was outstanding and thats why we won, Hanzal said.Smith, who missed 12 games with a lower-body injury before returning earlier in the week, felt well-rested.Its a game that you have to come in sharp and know youre probably going to get a lot of rubber thrown at you, he said. I was hoping it wasnt going to be in the 40s, but it happens.San Jose lost its third in a row despite finishing with a season-high 45 shots on goal.The Sharks cut the Coyotes lead to 2-1 just 41 seconds into the third period on Joe Pavelskis sixth goal of the season, a long, rising shot that was too fast for Smith to turn aside.Tommy Wingels scored off a deflected shot from teammate Matt Nieto at 10:28.Rieder, who missed Thursdays overtime loss at Vancouver due to injury, opened the scoring. He fired in a centering pass from Jordan Martinook at 1:55 of the first period after Martinook chased down the puck.It was Rieders fifth goal of the season and third in his last four games.Arizonas Ryan White and San Joses Michael Haley began exchanging punches off the faceoff right after the goal, with Haley getting in the most vicious hook.

Jones made 23 saves.Jones denied a pair of breakaways in the second, but couldnt stop Domis shot that found an opening short side between the post and Jones body at 7:53. Domis second goal and team-leading 13th point of the season came 25 seconds after Arizona went on a power play.The Coyotes were whistled twice for too many men on the ice, but they thwarted all three Sharks power plays.Disappointed, but satisfied with the effort, San Jose coach Peter DeBoer said.
