Best Bet of the Day
NHL: Arizona Coyotes ML over St. Louis Blues (-120)
9:00 pm ET, ESPN+
The Coyotes have been average on home ice this season, but they seemed to dominate it all of last season. They may have an edge here as the Blues are only 3-5-1 on the road. The Coyotes have a slight edge in goal production as they have been producing 3.11 goals for per game compared to the 2.71 per game that the Blues are producing. The Coyotes managed to put up six goals against the Blues in their first meeting this season, and I think we could see a similar outcome Wednesday night. When the Coyotes are playing their game, they are difficult to defend as all four of their lines are solid. They do not have any real superstars aside from Clayton Keller; however, they have four solid lines that can produce. They have the 6th-best powerplay in the league, so if they go on the man advantage, look for a good result. Check out our full Blues vs Coyotes predictions.
