Nick Schmaltz had two goals and two assists to lead the Arizona Coyotes to a 9-2 road romp over the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday.

Jakob Chychrun and Nick Ritchie each had two goals and an assist for Arizona (17-35-4, 38 points), which has won three in a row and four of its last five.

The Coyotes have scored 17 goals in their last two games for their two highest single-game goal outbursts this season.

Detroit (24-27-6, 54 points) has lost five of its last six.

Arizona opened the onslaught right away, taking a 1-0 lead just 1:06 into the game on a goal by Travis Boyd, who buried a rebound from in front of the goal.

Detroit tied the game at 1-1 with 13:54 left in the first period on a power-play goal by Robby Fabbri, but Arizona scored the next five goals of the game.

Ritchie scored with 11:45 remaining in the first to give Arizona a 2-1 lead, taking a cross-crease pass from Barrett Hayton and burying a chance into a half-open goal.

Then with 6:41 left in the first, Chychrun dove and poked a loose puck that was laying in the crease into the net to give Arizona a 3-1 lead.

The Coyotes continued their offensive assault in the second period, scoring three more times in the first 4:49 of the period to take a 6-1 lead.

Schmaltz scored 1:04 into the period when he wristed home a shot from the left face-off circle, then 51 seconds later Chychrun got his second of the night when he fired in a shot from the top of the left face-off circle.

With 15:11 remaining in the second, Ritchie made it 6-1 for Arizona before Jakub Vrana scored his first goal of the season for Detroit that cut Arizona's lead to 6-2 with three minutes left in the second.

But just two minutes later, Schmaltz scored his second of the game to give Arizona a 7-2 advantage.

Christian Fischer and Clayton Keller added third-period goals for Arizona to complete the rout.
