A pair of undefeated teams meet here, which will mean a fierce early season defensive duel. Minnesota is off a 3-2 win over St. Louis, and is 3-1-3 UNDER the total against the Pacific Division. Arizona is home and off to a surprising 3-0-0 start keyed by defense, ranked second in the league in goals allowed and tops in killing penalties. The UNDER is 10-2-1 in the Coyotes last 13 home games. Goalie Mike Smith was in need of a bounce-back campaign and is having it, 3-0-0 with a microscopic 0.67 goals-against average and a stellar .981 save percentage. Smith made 37 saves Wednesday en route to his 28th career shutout after being named the NHL's Third Star of the Week two days earlier. Arizona is on a 17-6-3 run UNDER the total and when these teams meet the UNDER is 4-1-1. Play this one to finish UNDER.
