There are 11 games in the NHL tonight and we’ll be involved in 4 of them.
It’s been tough sledding lately but hopefully we get things turned around tonight.
We’ll be watching closely tonight to see the effect Taylor Hall has on the Coyotes. Arizona has been good this year and currently lead the Pacific but they’ve lacked scoring punch, something Hall can help them with.
Breakdowns and opinions are below and our personal four-game card was emailed to Site Supporters earlier today.
Good luck!
