Nashville Predators vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction
The Edmonton Oilers have been worth fading so far this season because they have yet to really get rolling. The problem is the Nashville Predators haven’t played any better. The Oilers are also having their best week of the season with back-to-back wins, and they’ve scored a combined 11 goals in their last two games. This could be a turning point for the Oilers. The Nashville Predators can’t win on the road, and their offense isn’t scaring anybody. Give me the Oilers, and I’ll lay the PL to shave down the expensive price.
