Schmaltz scored an empty-net goal, added an assist, went plus-3 and blocked two shots in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.
Schmaltz set up Nick Ritchie on the Coyotes' first tally in the first period. In the third, Schmaltz scored from behind his own goal line to seal the win with an empty-netter. The 26-year-old lined up as a center in this contest, though he only went 2-for-8 on faceoffs. He finishes a remarkable March with nine goals and 13 assists through 14 appearances, though the departure of linemate Clayton Keller (lower body) from Wednesday's contest could negatively impact Schmaltz's offense. He's at 20 goals, 47 points, 93 shots on net and a plus-11 rating in 48 appearances.
