VIDEO: Max Domi roofs 2nd of game for 3rd straight Coyotes goal
It's still early, but Arizona Coyotes forward Max Domi is making a push for the Calder Trophy.
He scored a pair of goals less than four minutes apart late in the second period Monday night, giving the Coyotes a 3-2 lead over the Anaheim Ducks.
The rookie flicked a wrist shot that trickled past Frederik Andersen, giving Domi his seventh goal of the season:

His first goal of the night came on a seemingly harmless shot that beat Andersen to tie the game.
The Coyotes rallied from a 2-0 deficit to take the lead.
Domi is now tied with New York Rangers forward Oscar Lindberg for the league lead in goals by a rookie.
He also passed injured Edmonton Oilers center Connor McDavid with his 13th point. Domi trails Artemi Panarin of the Chicago Blackhawks for the rookie points lead by two.
