Looking back at their past performances, the Coyotes have displayed an impressive offensive game. In their last three matches, they've scored a total of 12 goals, showcasing their ability to find the back of the net consistently. Their shooting percentage has been noteworthy as well; in one game alone they achieved an 18 percent shooting success rate.


Their powerplay opportunities have also been capitalized upon effectively. In two separate games, they managed to score on 33 percent and 50 percent of their powerplays respectively. This indicates that when given the chance, Arizona can be lethal with a man advantage.

Defensively speaking, goaltending has been solid for Arizona with save percentages hitting perfect marks in two out of three recent games. This defensive reliability will be crucial against a Devils team known for its attacking prowess.


The faceoff circle tells another story where there's room for improvement; while they've won over half of their faceoffs in one game (54 percent), they've also seen games where this statistic dipped below 50 percent.

The venue could play into Arizona's hands as well; playing on home ice at Mullett Arena often brings out the best in teams due to familiar surroundings and fan support.


Fans can catch all the action from this exciting matchup on March 16th at 21:00 UTC. The game will be broadcasted on ESPN+ online as well as MSGSN and SCRIPPS television networks. Don't miss what promises to be an enthralling contest between these two competitive teams!
