Nashville Predators vs. Minnesota Wild Prediction

I’m on the Predators +1.5 here. I get the reasoning for Minnesota being favored at home as the home team has won 6 straight in this head-to-head matchup. However, the Wild haven’t been playing well enough to justify being this much of a favorite, and while Nashville’s not one of my favorites, including on their road, I still think that Nashville can keep this one close and competitive so give me the +1.5 here.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Nashville +1.5
