The Montreal Canadiens head to Arizona to take on a Coyotes team that is incredible at home.
This will be a matchup between two of the worst teams in the league. The Senators have found their stride in the season, and the Canadiens have replaced them as the bottom padding in the Atlantic Division.
Arizona is certainly missing the Pacific Division; there, they could have the Sharks and Ducks below them and could be competing with the Canucks.
However, with the addition of the Kraken, the Arizona team were moved to the Central division, where they sit with the Blackhawks at the bottom of that division. There is a significant division between those two teams and the rest of the division.

Canadiens vs. Coyotes Best Picks
Clayton Keller has been a standout for Arizona. Through 29 games, he has 29 points. He is one of the few things Arizona has going for them.
There are a couple of different ways bettors can take advantage of how great Keller has been; his point line offers a tremendous payout, but he only has five multipoint games this season. The goal is the better move in this one.

Canadiens vs. Coyotes Prediction
The Yotes dominate at home. They are not the best team, but they destroy teams playing in that tiny arena in Tempe. It's like no one else knows how to play in such a small arena. Arizona is 6 - 2 at Mullet Arena.
However, for some reason, the Canadiens play way better on the road than they do at home. Montreal is 10 - 5 on the road, but 6 - 10 at home. This creates a great matchup between the two teams.
Neither goalie is tremendous; neither team holds an edge there. Jake Allen is three games under .500, and Karel Vejmelka's record sits right at .500.
Arizona should hold it down here as great as the Canadians are on the road.
Arizona (-120)
