Good call Lippsman. My internet was down yesterday, so I just enjoyed a good showing by Smith on TV. The way the announcers were talking you would have thought the series is tied. Not so sure the Coyotes can play that well at home, but I will probably take them as they will likely be a huge home dog.

How will the Kings handle that confidence being broken ?? I don't think very well. And speaking from a historical perspective, the home team being a dog here is just too good to resist.
Ignoring win order; considering site order, the team leading 3-1 and going on the road for game 5 has a record of 40-51 (.440) overall and for the Semifinals round: 11-9 (.550)
Add to that the Kings finally losing and Smith going out of his mind, getting back major confidence I see the Yotes as a play tonight.
