Arizona Coyotes vs Boston Bruins prediction
The Boston Bruins are the better team, obviously, and they could blow the doors off here, especially at home. The Bruins should be favored. However, we’re getting two times our money with a Coyotes team that’s played well at both ends of the ice and just won five games in a row. This is also an early start, which can sometimes produce some sluggish play. The Coyotes are in good form. You can do a lot worse with your money than chasing a big payout with the Coyotes, who are currently playing well.
