Minnesota Wild vs Arizona Coyotes prediction
The Arizona Coyotes are fade material until they get their act together, as they’ve lost 6 straight games and their defense has been getting blasted. The Coyotes have allowed 5 or more goals in 4 of their last 6 games. The Minnesota Wild have put together a nice week which includes 3 straight wins and their last two games were outright wins in the underdog role. The Coyotes have had success against the Wild, which includes a 6-0 win last month. Still, the Wild enters this contest in better form. The price is reasonable. Give me the Wild on the road.
