Analyzing the past game data reveals that the Coyotes have been on an upward trend. In their last encounter against Seattle Kraken, they secured a win with a final score of 2-1 after pushing into overtime. This victory was marked by solid goaltending, as they saved 27 out of 28 shots, reflecting a near-perfect save percentage. Despite being slightly outshot and having fewer hits than their opponents, they managed to capitalize on their opportunities and clinched the game with an overtime goal.


In contrast, during their visit to Dallas Stars' home ice at American Airlines Center, the Coyotes fell short with a loss of 2-5. The statistics from this game show that while they had more hits than in previous games (38), their faceoff win percentage dropped significantly (43 percent), and they suffered defensively with a minus fifteen plus-minus rating.

However, redemption came when facing off against New Jersey Devils back at Mullett Arena. The Coyotes dominated with four goals scored on thirty-two shots and showcased exceptional goaltending once again by saving thirty-seven out of thirty-eight shots for an impressive save percentage.


The venue may play into Arizona's favor as Mullett Arena has been kind to them recently; both victories mentioned were achieved there before loyal fans who will undoubtedly create an electrifying atmosphere once more.
