The Ottawa Senators dropped their first three games, but certainly have been more competitive since. The Phoenix Coyotes, since their season opening 5-2 win, have been starved for offense with just 12 goals in their subsequent six games at 2 per outing. They have managed just a single win in the six games, and have been extended to overtime three times - all losses. Heading to Ottawa certainly doesn't look like the remedy. The Coyotes have dropped each of their last five games in Ottawa. They also have another mountain to conquer as they are 0-7 in their last seven games when facing a team that scored 2 or less in their last trip on the ice. They have also had monumental struggles vs. teams that are winning less than 40% of their home games at just 5-17 in their last 22. The Senators are strong off of two days rest at 16-5 in their last 21. They have been money at home as a favorite from -110 to -150, where they are 24-10 in their last 34. Ottawa wins here.
