This is a 10* SITUATIONAL DISCORD TOP TOTAL on the UNDER Avs/Coyotes.

The Avs are struggling mightily these days, thanks in part to a defense which can't seem to keep the puck out of the net these days.

Colorado most recently enters off a bit of a surprising 6-2 loss at home to the Wild.

Arizona on the other hand enters "gassed," as it's won two in a row, each time coming from behind to post the victory.

Here we have the struggling Avs, desperate for a win and a better showing on the defensive end, facing a tired and content Coyotes team.

Situationally speaking, this one definitely has "UNDER" written all over it.

But additionally from a trend-based stand-point, note that the Avs have in fact seen the total dip UNDER the number in seven of their last ten road games after allowing six or more goals in a four goals or greater home defeat in their last outing.

Considering all of the above information, we're expecting more of a defensive affair between these two clubs on Friday night. The play is the UNDER!

Good luck, NP
