Carolina Hurricanes vs Arizona Coyotes prediction
The Carolina Hurricanes are not only the better team here, but they’ve won 8 of the last 10 meetings against the Coyotes, which includes a 3-1 win a couple of weeks ago. The Arizona Coyotes just can’t get out of their own way as the offense or defense lets them down from game to game, and they’re quickly watching their season slip through their hands. You could argue the Canes could be in the -200 range in this spot. There’s little reason to consider the Coyotes. Give me the Hurricanes and the PL for max betting value.
