10:05 PM EST. What you’re going to read about or hear about the Coyotes is that they have won four straight at home and that their goaltending has been the NHL’s best or damn close to it. In fact, the Coyotes have given up only 10 goals in seven home games this season. With five overall wins in a row, which included a 7-1 resonating blowout over the Bolts, Arizona’s stock has never been higher and you’ll pay for it here to back them but had this game been played two weeks ago, when the Yotes were playing just as well but losing, Philadelphia would have been favored. It’s worth noting that in its last game on Friday night, Arizona was outshot by Carolina 47-20 but won 4-3.

Once again, luck was the biggest factor in the outcome of Arizona’s win on Friday and while they are certainly a decent team, they are overpriced here against a strong opponent.

Philadelphia dropped three in a row prior to this four-game West Coast swing but it’s not because they were playing poorly. Puck luck was not on their side with just two goals scored on that aforementioned three-game losing streak but things have turned for the better for the Flyers. The Flyers have picked up five out of a possible six points thus far against the Ducks, Kings and Sharks and have scored 11 goals over that stretch. That’s 11 goals in three games on this current trip after two goals in three games previously. The Flyers are loaded up front and they’re playing well. A win here on the final game of a road trip would mean points in every game and that’s a motivating factor to be sure. Finally, with injuries to Brian Elliott and Michal Neuvirth, Calvin Pickard is expected to get the start in goal for the Flyers here and we suspect this news will attract even more money on the Coyotes later today. We’re almost guaranteed to get a better price on the Flyers after dinner so we’re going to hold off until that time and we’ll tweet out whether or not we’re stepping in then but the plan right now is that we will be. Stay tuned.
