    • The OVER is 4-1 in the Coyotes' last five vs the Western Conference.

    Golden Knights vs Coyotes Game Center

    Karlsson has been heating up for the Knights

    Vegas edged Arizona 3-2 in the last meeting between the teams on November 21 thanks to Max Pacioretty’s two goals. The Golden Knights are coming off a 4-1 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday and are 6-1-3 SU since December 8. William Karlsson scored against the Kings to give him 15 tallies on the year and six in his past 10 games.

    The Coyotes are seeking their fourth win in five contests after beating Anaheim 5-4 in overtime on Saturday. Nick Schmaltz has been a revelation since coming over from Chicago on November, as the 22-year-old set up Jakob Chychrun’s game-tying goal and scored the Sportsbook 33 seconds into the extra frame. Schmaltz has 14 points (five goals) in 16 games with the ‘Yotes.

    Coyotes have struggled mightily against Vegas

    To say the Golden Knights have straight-up owned the Coyotes would be an understatement. In the six meetings between the clubs, Vegas is 5-1 SU. Arizona’s lone win came on March 28 when they topped the Knights 3-2 as +197 underdogs.

    When it comes to the total, bettors will want to pay attention to the Coyotes’ penchant for going OVER at home. In Arizona’s past eight contests, the OVER is 6-2. Arizona has also eclipsed the closing total in four of its past five against Western Conference opposition.
