Arizona Coyotes vs. Columbus Blue Jackets Predictions

The Arizona Coyotes arrive in Columbus with a nearly even record, showing flashes of potential throughout the season. Despite their recent loss, the Coyotes have been competitive, with star right winger Clayton Keller leading the team with 7 goals and 16 points. Center Logan Cooley has also made a significant impact, contributing 10 assists. The Coyotes’ offense has been a bright spot, but they’ll need to tighten up defensively against a Blue Jackets team eager to end their skid.

The Columbus Blue Jackets are in the midst of a challenging stretch, having lost six straight games. However, they’ve been close to victories, with four of those losses decided by just one goal. Center Boone Jenner has been a key player for Columbus, leading the team with 7 goals and 9 points, while defenseman Ivan Provorov has contributed 9 assists. The Blue Jackets will need to leverage their home-ice advantage and find a way to convert close games into wins, starting with a solid performance against the Coyotes.

This game will also feature a matchup of two young talents, with the Coyotes’ Cooley and the Blue Jackets’ rookie Adam Fantilli, who has been impressive with 9 points, including four goals. Both teams are looking for consistency and a win here could be a step in the right direction. With the Coyotes ranked 9th in the Western Conference and the Blue Jackets at the bottom of the Eastern Conference, both teams have plenty of motivation to secure a victory in this head-to-head encounter.

Arizona Coyotes vs. Columbus Blue Jackets Pick

The Columbus Blue Jackets, despite their current losing streak, are poised for a rebound at home against the Arizona Coyotes. The Blue Jackets’ recent games have been closely contested, with four of their last six losses being decided by a single goal, indicating that they are on the cusp of turning those narrow defeats into victories. With the Coyotes coming off a loss and the Blue Jackets hungry to snap their skid, the motivation at Nationwide Arena will be high. Additionally, the Blue Jackets have shown they can compete against the spread, even in their recent rough patch, and with players like Boone Jenner and Ivan Provorov leading the charge, they have the talent to capitalize on the Coyotes’ defensive vulnerabilities.

Historically, the head-to-head matchups have been evenly split, but the Blue Jackets’ need to break their losing streak gives them an extra edge. Furthermore, the Coyotes’ record as the favorite this season suggests they may not be as comfortable in that role, with only three wins to one loss. Considering the Blue Jackets’ competitive spirit in recent games and the Coyotes’ less convincing record as favorites, betting on the Columbus Blue Jackets’ moneyline is a calculated choice that could pay off as they look to leverage their home-ice advantage and secure a much-needed win.

The Pick: Columbus Blue Jackets +104. (FanDuel)
