Prediction
Coyotes 2, Golden Knights 1
Moneyline (ML)
The COYOTES (+110) are a nice value on the road, where they have actually been way better than in their own home barn. They’re 13-5-3 on the road, whereas the Golden Knights (-133) are just 10-7-3 at home. Take the visitors.
Puck Line/Against the Spread (ATS)
AVOID. Neither of these teams are going to win in a landslide. It will be a low-scoring defensive slog with plenty of goaltending. Avoid the puck line.
Over/Under (O/U)
The UNDER 5.5 (+100) has connected in eight of the past 11 for Arizona on the road, while going 11-5 in the past 16 against the Pacific Division. VGK has hit the Under in eight of the past 10 at home, and 10-4 in their past 14 as a favorite.
