Auston Matthews seemed to have scored in his 100th NHL game, but the Toronto Maple Leafs' star center was denied due to a call of goaltender interference.
Zach Hyman got tangled up with Antti Raanta at the right side of the net before Matthews deposited it into the left, and after a lengthy review spurred by a coach's challenge, the NHL ruled the netminder was impeded in his ability to make the save.
The goal would have tied the game at two late in the third period. The Coyotes went on to win 4-1 thanks to a pair of empty-net goals.
