This is an 8* PUCK-LINE DESTRUCTION on the Nashville Predators.
I like the Predators to lay the smack down on the lowly Oilers today and definitely feel that we're getting great value in laying the 1.5 goals for the healthy return. Nashville is coming off a 4-3 shootout win over LA on Tuesday and is 8-1-1 at home with four straight victories; it's also 5-1-1 against the Pacific Division. The Predators penalty kill has started to turn the corner as well, they've killed off 15 of the last 17 chances over the last nine games. But the difference maker this year for the Central division leaders has been their play at five-on-five, they're the best team in the league with a 1.68 goals-for-to-against ratio in such circumstances. Defensively overall the Predators are limiting the opposition to just 2.10 GPG, also among the league's best, goaltender Pekka Rinne is tied for the league lead for victories and his 1.97 GAA is also among the best in the NHL. All of that spells bad news for Edmonton which comes to town on a seven-game losing streak, most recently falling 3-2 in Dallas on Tuesday; the Oilers are 0-11-1 vs. the West so far this year. Not surpisingly, Edmonton is allowing 3.45 GPG and its goaltenders .885 save percentage is the worst in the league. I'll be surprised if the Oilers notch even a single goal, all signs point to a rout; play on the PREDATORS on the PUCK-LINE.
