This is a long road trip for Boston but like last year, they have an impressive winning road mark. They've also won five of the last seven games overall. Arizona is thin on depth and talent at #29 in the league in goals allowed, #28 in penalty killing, and #27 offensively on the power play. Arizona has five rookies on a roster that includes four second-year players. The Coyotes are coming off a 3-2 loss at home to the Winnipeg Jets. Arizona has also battled key injuries to starting goalie Mike Smith (left leg) and center Martin Hanzal (lower body). The Coyotes are 2-8 when playing on one day of rest, plus 20-56 against a team with a winning record. Arizona is 15-39 against the Eastern Conference, including eight straight losses to the Bruins. Back Boston.
