Daymond Langkow will move up from the fourth line to take Martin Hanzal's spot in the Coyotes' top-six forward group in Game 3 on Thursday.
He will play between Radim Vrbata and Taylor Pyatt, with Hanzal suspended for one game for a boarding infraction against Los Angeles captain Dustin Brown on Tuesday night. "Yeah, I've been there before," Langkow said. "We've got to work hard as a group and play our game and get the job the done. I haven't played with [Vrbata] at all except for a little bit in the third [period] at the end of last game. I've played with [Pyatt] a little bit. I know what kind of players they are. [Pyatt] is real good down low and obviously [Vrbata] is a great shooter. We just need to work hard and make things click." The veteran center has no goal and six assists in 13 playoff contests.
