LiontipsArizona vs Washington. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (April 23, 2022).
Command Analysis
Arizona are on an eight-game losing streak and in each of those games, the Coyotes conceded at least four goals. In the last three outings, the team was crushed by Calgary (1:9) away and lost to Carolina (3:5) and Chicago (3:4 ОТ) at home.
André Tourigny's side faces very tough opponents in the remaining games of the regular season. The Coyotes are unlikely to earn points in any of those, and we think they will end the season at the bottom of the Western Conference table.
Washington are tied for 8th place in the East with Pittsburgh and have a chance to reach the 5th line if they deliver successful results in the remaining fixtures. The Capitals have earned points in seven of their last eight games.
Recently, the team defeated Montreal (8:4) and Colorado (3:2), and had a very close game against Vegas, but conceded in overtime (3:4 OT). Forward Ovechkin continues to demonstrate fantastic performance and has registered 50 goals this season.
