Prediction:
The Coyotes appear to be turning a corner with their array of young talent. Heading into this writeup, I thought I was ready to pull the trigger on a Philadelphia bet but the more I looked into it the more I sided with Arizona. While the Coyotes were a little more vulnerable their last game, they still recorded the win and are facing a Flyers team here that isn’t overwhelming in the slightest. Bet on Arizona to register a sixth consecutive win.
