Stephen Nover's NHL Underdog Game of the Year
(NHL) Los Angeles vs. Arizona, 12/23/2022 9:30 PM, Score: 1 - 2
Money Line: 151.00 Arizona (Home)
Result: Win
This is a great spot for the underdog Coyotes. They catch the Kings fat and happy after LA just completed a three-game homestand sweep by edging the Flames, 4-3, in overtime last night. 

So the Kings are playing for the third time in four days and without rest. This also is the first time they will be playing in Mullett Arena, a college hockey rink much smaller than a normal NHL arena. This gives the Coyotes a huge home ice advantage especially for opponents who have yet to play there like the Kings. The Kings aren't likely to have the luxury of a morning skate there either to get used to the place because they played last night. 

The Coyotes have won three of their last five home games, including upsetting the Bruins during this span.
