Tag: Arizona Coyotes vs. Colorado Avalanche odds predictions pick betting line spread

The Arizona Coyotes (19-18-5) travel to meet the Colorado Avalanche (28-9-4) Monday with a 9 p.m. ET puck drop at Ball Arena. Below, we analyze the Coyotes-Avalanche odds and lines, with NHL picks and predictions.

The Coyotes came up short in Sunday’s game at the Vegas Golden Knights, losing 1-0 as G Adin Hill took a hard-luck loss. The Coyotes won three road games in a row from April 2-5, but they have dropped their past three away from home. This will be their eighth consecutive road game.

The Avalanche swept a two-game set on the road against the Anaheim Ducks, and they have won seven of their past eight outings. That includes a 9-3 victory against the Coyotes in the most recent meeting between these teams March 31 in Denver.

Coyotes at Avalanche: Projected starting goalies

Adin Hill (7-7-1, 2.89 GAA, .908 SV%, 1 SO) vs. Philipp Grubauer (24-8-1, 2.00 GAA, .919 SV%, 5 SO)

Hill turned aside 28 of the 29 shots he faced Sunday. He has been doing the heavy lifting with Darcy Kuemper injured and rookie Ivan Prosvetov serving as the backup.

Grubauer leads the NHL in shutouts, and he continues to set a new career-high every time he wins. He has looked Vezina Trophy-like this season, although he was punished by the Minnesota Wild in a pair of games last week while allowing 11 goals on just 43 shots.

Grubauer is 4-1-0 with a 1.98 GAA and .908 SV% in five starts against the Coyotes this season.

Coyotes at Avalanche: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Avalanche 5, Coyotes 2

Money line (ML)

The Avalanche (-350) will cost you three and a half times your potential return, and even though the Avs pounded the Coyotes by a 9-3 score in the most recent meeting, the risk is just too great here.

PASS.

Against the spread (ATS)

AVALANCHE -1.5 (-140) is a strong play on home ice against the skidding Coyotes. Arizona also has the tough turnaround after a loss in Vegas Sunday with travel and another marquee opponent less than a day later.

The Coyotes are just 1-8 in their past nine against a team with a winning record.

Over/Under (O/U)

The OVER 6 (+100) is the play at even money.

The Over has cashed in 10 of the last 14 games for the Avs while hitting in nine of the past 12 for the Coyotes. The Over is also 6-1 in Arizona’s past seven as an underdog, and 4-1 in its past five against winning teams.

The Over is also 7-3 in the past 10 meetings in this series.

The Arizona Coyotes (16-14-5) travel to meet the Colorado Avalanche (22-8-4) Wednesday for a 9:30 p.m. ET puck drop at Ball Arena. Below, we analyze the Coyotes-Avalanche odds and lines, with NHL picks and predictions.

The Coyotes enter on a three-game win streak, including a 4-0 shutout of the San Jose Sharks in Arizona Saturday in their most recent showing. A 5-4 shootout win over the Avalanche as huge underdogs kicked off the win streak.

The Avalanche streak into this game without a loss in regulation since March 8, which just happened to be at home against the Coyotes. They’re 9-0-2 across the impressive stretch, and they enter play just one point back of first place in the West Division.

Coyotes at Avalanche: Projected starting goalies

Adin Hill (4-3-1, 2.44 GAA, .920 SV%, 1 SO) vs. Philipp Grubauer (21-7-1, 1.74 GAA, .929 SV%, 5 SO)

Hill has rolled to three consecutive victories, allowing a total of 6 goals during the span. That includes a 5-4 shootout win over the Avs March 23. He is coming off a 34-save shutout against the Sharks at home Saturday.

Grubauer has already set a career-high with 21 victories this season. His previous best was 18 wins in each of the past two campaigns. He has been particularly effective in March, posting 11 wins across 13 starts and one relief appearance.

Coyotes at Avalanche: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Avalanche 5, Coyotes 2

Money line (ML)

The Avalanche (-275) are just too expensive to bet straight up, as they will cost you nearly three times your potential return. Over the long haul that’s not a winning formula.

PASS.

Against the spread (ATS)

The AVALANCHE -1.5 (-105) are worth playing rather than the expensive money line. Yes, Hill is on a three-game heater, including a win over Colorado; however, Grubauer’s overall body of work is much more impressive, and the Avalanche are averaging 4.89 goals per game across their past nine outings.

Over/Under (O/U)

OVER 5.5 (-110) is the play, as the Avs are going for nearly 5 markers per night across their past nine outings.

In the most recent meetings in Arizona March 22-23, the Over connected both times. The Colorado offense has hit its stride, and not even the red-hot Hill will offer much resistance.

The Arizona Coyotes (11-10-3) play the first of a two-game set on the road against the Colorado Avalanche (13-7-2) Monday with a 9 p.m. ET puck drop at Ball Arena. Below, we analyze the Coyotes-Avalanche odds and lines, with NHL picks and predictions.

Coyotes at Avalanche: Projected starting goalies

Darcy Kuemper (7-7-2, 2.39 GAA, .915 SV%, 1 SO) vs. Philipp Grubauer (12-6-0, 2.06 GAA, .921 SV%, 3 SO)

Kuemper was sharp in Saturday’s start against Minnesota, stopping 32 of the 34 shots he faced to level his record at .500. He has allowed three or fewer goals in each of his past nine starts. This will be Kuemper’s first start against the Avalanche this season. He turned aside all 33 shots he faced in a 3-0 shutout against Colorado at Gila River Arena Nov. 2, 2019.

Grubauer had a couple of uneven results at the end of February, spilling over into March. He appeared to have righted the ship, however, blanking the Sharks in San Jose Wednesday and stopping 26 of 28 shots in a 3-2 overtime win against Anaheim on Friday at Ball Arena. He also allowed two goals on 25 shots in his only appearance against the Coyotes in a 6-2 win at Arizona Feb. 27.

Coyotes at Avalanche: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Avalanche 4, Coyotes 3

Money line (ML)

The Avalanche (-200) will cost you two times your potential return. That’s a little too rich for my blood for a team that is playing .500 hockey across the past eight outings, including a 1-3 mark across their past four at home. AVOID.

Play our new free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Against the spread (ATS)

The COYOTES +1.5 (-175) are 0-2 against the Avalanche so far this season, but they have rattled off four victories in a row on the road. While I don’t think they pull out another win, they should be able to keep it close, and Kuemper is playing well enough in the crease to help them do just that.

Over/Under (O/U)

The OVER 5.5 (-105) is a nice play here as Arizona is allowing 3.0 goals per game. Meanwhile, Colorado is averaging 3.8 goals per game across the past five, too. The Over has cashed in four of the past five meetings in this series. In addition, the Over has connected in 12 of the past 17 for Arizona as an underdog, while going 6-2 in their past eight on the road. The Avs are playing their fourth game in six days, and the Over is 9-3 in their past 12 in a 4-in-6 days situation.
