Dave Tippett will have another round of that.

The Arizona Coyotes coach was pleased with rookie forward Lawson Crouse following Saturday's game versus the Nashville Predators, in which the young forward skated for 12:34 while also assisting on Alex Goligoski's game-opening goal.

Oh, and he traded punches with Predators blue-liner P.K. Subban. Quite the night for Crouse, indeed.

"That was the best game he's played in the NHL so far and it's good to see him get rewarded," Tippett told reporters following the team's 4-1 victory.

Crouse was quick to credit his teammates for the performance.

"It was an all-around effort. In the past we've been chipping in here or there, but it was great to get the full two points."
