The Coyotes are coming into this game with 51 points, a 22-50-7 record overall, and they are 12-23-4 in their road games this regular season where they will be in this game. They have lost 11 of their last 12 games and are coming into this one on a 10 game losing streak. Their last win was against the Chicago Blackhawks while their 11 losses in that span came against the Anaheim Ducks, the St. Louis Blues, the Vancouver Canucks, the Vegas Golden Knights, the New Jersey Devils, the Canucks again, the Calgary Flames, the Carolina Hurricanes, the Blackhawks, the Washington Capitals, and the Blues again in their last game. They lost that game at home in OT 5-4. They still have a game against the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday night that needs to be played first so this will be the 2nd leg of a back-to-back for them on Wednesday night. In their game against the Blues, Michael Carcone, Bokondji Imama, Janis Jérôme Moser, and Nathan Smith each scored 1 goal for them in that one. Nathan Smith and Antoine Roussel led the team in shots on net in that game with 3 each. Harri Säteri was the starting goalie in that game and he allowed 5 goals on 33 shots with 28 saves and a .848 sv percentage. Their offense has scored 193 goals this season averaging 2.4 goals per game and their defense has allowed their opponents to score 303 goals against them allowing 3.8 goals per game. 

 

 

The Stars are coming into this game with 93 points, a 44-30-5 record overall, and they are 25-10-3 in their home games this regular season where they will be in this game. They have lost 3 of their last 4 games but are coming into this one off of a win in their last game which snapped a 3 game losing streak that they were on. Their 3 losses in that span were against the Vancouver Canucks, the Edmonton Oilers, and the Calgary Flames while their win came against the Seattle Kraken in their last game. They won that game at home 3-2. They still have a game against the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday night that needs to be played first so this will be the 2nd leg of a back-to-back for them on Wednesday night. In their game against the Kraken, Roope Hintz scored 2 goals in that game while Vladislav Namestnikov scored 1 goal for them in that one. Jason Robertson led the team in shots on net in that game with 7. Jake Oettinger was the starting goalie in that game and he allowed 2 goals on 32 shots with 30 saves and a .938 sv percentage. Their offense has scored 228 goals this season averaging 2.9 goals per game and their defense has allowed their opponents to score 238 goals against them allowing 3 goals per game. 

 

 

The Coyotes are coming into this game as a massive underdog with the current betting odds. They have had a very bad season and are sitting at the bottom of the standings but they have been starting to play much better in their recent games. They have still lost 10 straight games but the scores have been much closer in their last 5 games and they have only been losing by 2 goals or less in that span, with 2 of those games going to OT as well. They are going up against a Stars team that has not been playing well recently losing 3 of their last 4 games and picked the wrong time to go cold as they are still fighting to make the playoffs this season. Both teams will be on a back-to-back here and the Stars have a very tough game against Vegas the night prior as they are both battling each other for a Wild Card spot. That game is going to leave the Stars exhausted and with how bad they have been playing recently, this is the perfect spot for the Coyotes to snap their long losing streak and play spoiler as a loss would be detrimental to the Stars season. The best bet in this game is on the Coyotes to cover the puckline but this is a great spot for them to win and play spoiler as well.
