The St. Louis Blues and Arizona Coyotes square off Saturday in NHL hockey action at the Gila River Arena.
The St. Louis Blues look for a win after splitting their last six games. The St. Louis Blues are averaging 3.2 goals per game and are scoring on 11.4 percent of their power play opportunities. Brayden Schenn leads St. Louis with six goals, David Perron has eight assists and Ryan O’Reilly has 36 shots on goal.

The Arizona Coyotes look for a win after winning four of their last six games. The Arizona Coyotes are averaging 2.8 goals per game and are scoring on 23.4 percent of their power play opportunities.

The Blues are 4-1 in their last 5 road games. The Coyotes are 6-0 in their last 6 Saturday games and 4-1 in their last 5 vs. West. The over is 7-2 in Blues last 9 overall. The over is 11-3-1 in Coyotes last 15 overall. The Blues are 10-3 in the last 13 meetings in Arizona and 3-9 in the last 12 meetings.
The Arizona Coyotes have had success against the Blues this season, so I wouldn't be so quick to write them off after one game. However, the Blues looked a little too comfortable last night and they've played some of their best hockey on the road. The Coyotes have also had major issues playing on the end of back to backs dating back to last season. I wouldn't put anything past the Coyotes bouncing back, but I'll lay the cheap price with the Blues.
