Trends

Minnesota is 7-2 in their last 9 games against the Central and 2-5 in their last 7 road games. The under is 5-2-1 in Minnesota’s last 8 games. Arizona is 1-6 in their last 7 Monday games and 21-43 in their last 64 home games. The under is 5-1 in Arizona’s last 6 games. The favorite is 10-1 in these two teams last 11 head to head meetings.

Pick

Minnesota comes into this game after winning their last two games, while Arizona has alternated losses and wins over their last five games. Arizona has actually played pretty well at home this season and is 2-1 in their last three home games. Minnesota has lost three road games in a row, but they are the better defensive team in this matchup. I like Arizona to keep this game close and I am taking them +1.5 goals.

David’s Pick Coyotes +1.5
