Analysis and forecast for the NHL match “Arizona Coyotes” – “Columbus Blue Jackets” (03/27/2024)
The NHL regular season is coming to an end. To the disappointment of fans, the Columbus Blue Jackets missed their chance to make the playoffs and will soon be going on vacation. The club will play Arizona on March 27 at Mallett Arena. The referee will introduce the puck at 5:00 Moscow time.

Washington-Detroit. Ovechkin will improve his record
Columbus had another weak season, in which management decisions raised some questions about its competence. The jump with the head coaches and the hasty appointment of the inexperienced Pascal Vincent caused the team’s inexpressive play.
After 71 games, Columbus is in last place not only in the Metropolitan Division, but in the entire Eastern Conference. If you carefully study the team’s roster, this position of the club is surprising, because the “jackets” have assembled a team of high-quality young players, in which the Russian trio Marchenko – Voronkov – Chinakhov takes the lead.
Vincent was given good players to manage, but he ineptly disposed of them. The Blue Jackets coach got too carried away with the rotation, constantly changing line combinations. It makes no sense to talk about stability and teamwork in a situation like this.
However, there are some positive aspects that allow us to look to the future with some optimism. Selected in the fourth round of the draft, Dmitry Voronkov turned out to be a real find for the Jackets. If he is used correctly and given enough time on the ice, then the Russian is quite capable of becoming a leader.
I find it intriguing:
France-Chile. Good moment for Mbappé
In his first season in the NHL, the rookie already scored 31 points in the goal+pass system, scoring 17 goals. Voronkov was somewhat lucky, since there are compatriots in the team who helped in the adaptation. Although, in general, Columbus signed a lot of young players and it is quite possible to build a strong club from them.
It should be noted that Ivan Provorov is having a strong season and has become the leader of the defense. The Russian is the only defender in the Club who played all the games without missing a goal and, in addition, scored 29 points through the goal+pass system. He appears regularly on power plays because he has a strong shot and knows how to make an aggravating pass.
“Arizona” shows roughly the same level of play as “Columbus.” The Coyotes played the same number of games and scored just five more points than their opponents (73). The team has problems on all lines: the positional attack does not create chances well and in defense there are mistakes after blunders.
Robert can’t cope:
Wales – Poland. Lewandowski overestimates himself
Head coach Andre Tourinha is a promising specialist who leads Arizona in 2021. He has not yet been able to put together a strong team, as the roster is quite average by league standards. The coach focuses on defense, but the result is unsatisfactory. The Coyotes appear to be out of the playoffs for the fourth straight season.
Columbus in recent games plays in an offensive style, as if the team decided to close the door strongly before the end of the season. Saving energy is no longer necessary and a productive meeting is worth the wait. Marchenko and Voronkov are in good form, so we suggest considering a bet for a total of over 6.5 goals for 2.10.
Predictions and bets for the NHL match “Arizona” – “Columbus” on March 27, 2024
Columbus and Arizona finish the season without much pressure for the result, so they play brilliantly. The Blue Jackets attack a lot, try to control the puck, but in defense they open free zones that the opponent can take advantage of. We assume that the teams will please the crowd with at least seven goals scored.
Tender: total more than 6.5 goals in 2.10.
