NEWARK, N.J. -- The Arizona Coyotes entered the season with increased expectations after installing new general manager John Chayka, embracing a more analytical approach and landing prized defenseman Alex Goligoski in free agency.Through five games, that has not translated into success.The Coyotes defeated the Philadelphia Flyers in their season opener, but they lost their next four games -- all on the road, all in regulation -- and must find a way to win Tuesday in Prudential Center, a place where the New Jersey Devils are perfect in two contests this season.You always expect to win. That was the thing with our group, Coyotes defenseman Connor Murphy said. During training camp, we wanted the mindset to be that every game, you are supposed to win.We are playing to make the playoffs and be a top team in the league. We havent shown that at all. Its a long season and we can get there, but its going to take work.Theyll have to do it without goaltender Mike Smith, who left the teams second game of the season with a lower-body injury and is listed as week to week. Backup goaltender Louis Domingue has started the past three games and owns a 5.03 goals-against average and .851 save percentage in five games.The Devils (2-2-1), with just eight goals in five games, might be the perfect opponent for the Coyotes (1-4-0) as they limp along on their six-game road swing.We knew this was going to be a tough trip, Coyotes coach Dave Tippett said. Weve got to find out about our team; every game we find out a little more. There are some areas that are improving and there are some areas which still need lots of work.Weve got lots of players that are getting good experience right now, but all that being said, wins are what you come in this league for. Youve got to have wins.Left winger Taylor Hall was acquired during the offseason to help the Devils fix their 30th-ranked offense of a year ago, and he has done his part with three goals. But important forwards Adam Henrique and Michael Cammalleri, who combined for 42 goals in 144 games last season, have yet to register a goal this season.It is frustrating, Henrique said. Were getting opportunities and we cant seem to find one. We just stuck with it.Devils goaltender Cory Schneider is once again allowing his team to win games they would normally lose. He has a .943 save percentage, the best mark in the league among goaltenders to play more than three games. He has allowed two goals or fewer in his past three starts.You almost rely on him too much because hes so good in there, Hall said. When Im on the bench sitting down, and I cant really see the end result of a shot, I dont even panic because I know hes going to make the save. Hes been our backbone. Hes the best player on our team. The way hes been able to give us stability back there is awesome.The Coyotes have their own scoring woes, as left winger Anthony Duclair and center Max Domi have yet to score in five games this season after reaching 20 and 18 goals a season ago, respectively. If the Coyotes are to snap their losing streak, they might need a meaningful contribution from their second-year stars.Max has had some decent games, still does some good things with the puck, Tippett said to AZCentral.com. Hasnt scored like he did the start of last year. And Duclair, he had a real high shooting percentage last year that everything he shot really went in the net.But now the concerning thing for me is he hasnt gotten as near as many chances as he did last year. So hes gotta continue to work at his game to get his game to a level where he can help us. Pedro Cerrano Jersey .

Mercedes boss Toto Wolff is curious to know whether his team has fixed the problems it suffered at the Singapore street circuit last year.Singapore proved to be an anomaly in an otherwise dominant season for Mercedes in 2015, with Lewis Hamilton qualifying 1.4s off pole position in sixth and Nico Rosberg (the only Mercedes finisher) crossing the line 24s behind race winner Sebastian Vettel. The team addressed the cars set-up at the following rounds of 2015, but Wolff says the only way to know if the problems are solved for sure is to return to the track this weekend.We werent competitive there last year and I think we understood why, he said. We made some conclusions that helped us in the following races and throughout the season, and in Singapore [this year] we are going to check if we were right.There is no silver bullet or one thing that went wrong, but many things probably related to each other. This is why Im really curious and excited to see how Singapore is going to work.Wolff said Mercedess aims to have a car that is as good as possible at as many races as possible during the season, but admitted there are always going to be weaker tracks.ddddddddddddou can see where we got it right is that our car is the best compromise over 21 races and you need to have a chassis, engine and aero combination that works well on average. And then you have outliers and there are teams that are doing extremely well on circuits like Singapore because they are high downforce, but they are not competitive on a circuit like Monza.Wolff went on to draw a comparison with Red Bull, which struggled at Monza this year.You can play the blame game and say the engine is not good enough, the car is draggy and has a rake like you are doing a handstand - but then you cant expect it to go fast on the straights. Its about finding the best compromise, so lets see what happens in Singapore. ' ' '
