Blues vs Predators Prediction 

St. Louis rolls into this matchup on a lengthy winning streak, and they continue to fight for a wild card spot, but they will be on the road here. The Blues are 18-14-4 on the road this year, while the Predators are 18-14-3 at home. Nashville has won two of their last three games and did just beat Carolina on the road, but they were severely outshot in that game. St. Louis has won the first three games against Nashville this year by scores of 7-4, 4-1, and 4-1, and I like them again here. The Blues have allowed one goal in four of their last five games, and Nashville is one of the lowest-scoring teams in the NHL. I’m taking St. Louis to win.
