The San Jose Sharks and Arizona Coyotes face off in a Western Conference NHL showdown at Gila River Arena.
San Jose Sharks
The San Jose Sharks come into this game with a 29-29-8 record and they have gone 13-14-4 away from home this season.
The Sharks have won three of their last four games with the one loss coming two games against the Edmonton Oilers, a game they gave up five goals in. In the last game against the Anaheim Ducks the offense scored four goals, and that was enough to win by three goals.
The Sharks are averaging 2.63 goals per game while their defense is giving up 3.10 goals per game. Both of those rank in the bottom 3rd of the NHL, but in this game they are going to need the defense to be good.
Timo Meier has been the top player for San Jose scoring 30 goals and adding another 35 assists. Tomas Hertl has also been good this year scoring 26 goals and adding 28 assists. Logan Couture who is a key member of this team is dealing with an upper body injury and it’s unclear if he will be able to go in this game.
Arizona Coyotes
On the other side of this matchup is the Arizona Coyotes who sit with a 20-41-5 record overall and at home they sit with a 9-22-1 at home.
Arizona has lost six games in a row and the offense has been a big issue why. Over the last two games the Coyotes have scored only two goals total and over the last six games they haven’t scored more than two goals in a game.
The Coyotes are averaging 2.53 goals per game while their defense is giving up 3.57 goals per game. The Coyotes are averaging only 25.7 shots per game while allowing 35.49 shots on goal per game.
The top player this season for Arizona has been Clayton Keller who has scored 28 goals while giving up 35 goals. Outside of Keller this Coyotes team hasn’t had that many bright spots.
NHL Betting Trends:
- Arizona is 0-4 in their last four games against the Pacific.
- The over is 5-0-1 in the Coyotes last six in the third game of a 3-in-4 days situation.
- The under is 3-0-1 in Arizona’s last four games when their opponent allows two goals or less in their previous games.
Free San Jose Sharks vs. Arizona Coyotes NHL Prediction:
This Arizona team has struggled and the biggest issue overall has been the defense. I expect the Sharks to score three or four goals, and that is going to be the difference as Arizona gets the job done.
I don’t see the Coyotes scoring more than a goal or two, and this will be an easy winner for the Sharks. Back the Sharks on the money line.
