This is a 10* on SAN JOSE

While the top three spots in the Pacific Division have all been clinched, the fourth and final playoff entrant is very much in doubt. Virtually everyone, save for last place Anaheim, is still alive. San Jose enters Wednesday just five points back of fourth place St. Louis. They are also four points behind tonight’s opponent, Arizona. This is a game the Sharks must win and we think that they will. While the Coyotes have taken three of the season’s first five meetings, only one of those was here in San Jose and that was a 6-4 Sharks win. That game was Monday and saw San Jose race out to a four-goal lead. The win snapped the Sharks’ eight-game losing streak. But you can play with confidence here, knowing that the ‘Yotes have now lost six of their previous seven road games. This is a really solid value on San Jose. Arizona averages only 26.8 shots on goal in road games this season. Play on San Jose
