(Odds for the Nashville Predators ML is currently around 1.43.)
The Ottawa Senators have actually been playing pretty well lately, going 6-3 in their last 9 and a 2 game winning streak. The Nashville Predators on the other hand, despite having the far more impressive record are 2-4 in their last 6 and a 2 game losing streak. As good as the Ottawa Senators have been lately, most of their wins have come when they have played at home. The Ottawa Senators have an abysmal 7-16-4 road record and have lost their last 3 road games by 3 goal margins. The first meeting between these 2 resulted in a 4-3 OT victory by the Senators so another OT game would not surprise me. However, the Senators road record is what it is, so...
My pick is the Nashville Predators ML.
(I am currently in the negative with my picks. Game starts in about 18 hours 14 minutes.)
