Coyotes vs Canucks prediction

The Coyotes are playing some of their most competitive hockey as of late, with wins in 5 of their last 8 games. However, the Coyotes have had issues stringing together wins all year, and they have nothing to play for with them out of the playoff conversation. The Canucks have won 6 of the last 7 games against the Coyotes, and they’re still playing for playoff seeding. Games like this are a gift for the Canucks, as the Coyotes have to be eyeing vacation with only a couple of weeks left. Give me the Canucks and the more than reasonable price.
