Nashville Predators vs. St. Louis Blues Prediction
I’m on the Blues here. I’ll give Nashville credit for getting a win over Toronto on Saturday, but that game was at home and if there’s anything I’ve learned about the Predators, it’s that they’re a far less trustworthy team on the road and I don’t expect that to change here with a win percentage below 20%. The Blues are still rolling and even on a back-to-back, at least play on that back-to-back without having to travel. I’ll roll with the Blues in this one.
