Flames vs. Coyotes Prediction

Neither the Coyotes nor the Flames have anything to play for as both are out of the playoff conversation. Spots like this I would normally rely on plus money. However, the Flames have won 9 of their last 10 games against the Coyotes, including two wins in January. The Coyotes are 14-21-5 on the road this season. The Flames are playing bad hockey right now as they look like a team that is ready for the season to end. However, home ice and history are important. If forced to pick a winner in a pointless end-of-season matchup, pass me the torch.
