Avalanche vs. Predators Prediction
I’m on the over here. I just can’t trust either one of these teams right now with the state that their goaltending groups are in, and both sides have shown an ability at times to find the back of the net. I think that this is going to be one of those offensive clinic type of games so give me the over here.
