The Coyotes are 11-40 in their last 51 road games and 32-67 in their last 99 overall. The Kraken are 1-5 in their last 6 home games and 0-4 in their last 4 Monday games. The over is 4-0 in Coyotes last 4 overall. The under is 3-1-1 in Kraken last 5 overall.
The Arizona Coyotes have been fade material all year, and they’ve been even worse on the road. The Seattle Kraken are due for a victory at home, and they’re a win or two away from clinching a playoff spot. Backing the Coyotes isn’t an option. Give me the Kraken and the PL for max betting value.
