The Detroit Red Wings will host the Nashville Predators Friday night, and I think we're getting a fair price on the home team.

Nashville is coming off a 2-1 loss against Dallas on Tuesday, and the team has struggled for goals all season. Five of the Preds seven goals have come on the man advantage, but they might struggle on the power play here against a Red Wings team that has killed off all nine short-handed opportunities is has faced over the last three games.

The Red Wings picked up their second win of the season when they robbed the Rangers in a 2-1 victory on Wednesday after an outstanding performance from Jimmy Howard between the pipes. Tonight they'll turn to Petr Mrazek who held the Sens to one goal with 31 saves his last time out, and Nashville has yet to beat the 24 year old in three meetings.

Red Wings are 5-1 in their last six home games, Predators are 0-5 in their last five road games and Detroit has won four straight head-to-head meetings.
