CHICAGO, Nov. 29 (UPI) -- Mike Smith made 24 saves and nearly chalked up a shutout Tuesday in the Phoenix Coyotes' 4-1 win over Chicago.

Corey Crawford made 17 saves on 21 shots for Chicago. Ray Emery played the final 15 minutes and stopped all three shots he faced.

The Coyotes led 1-0 after one period and made it 2-0 in the second on Doan's goal at 9:15. Vrbata and Whitney scored early in the third period and the Coyotes held on despite being outshot 10-8 in the final period.
