Team News
The Nashville Predators face a make-or-break week that will define their season. They come into the first of five remaining fixtures this season sitting tenth in the Western Conference standings. At present, they are three points off the top eight places, meaning that they will likely be relying on favors from elsewhere to book a spot in the playoffs.
Their recent form has been decent, as they have won five of their last ten. However, they have also suffered five regulation defeats over the same period. This is a big first test at the start of a huge week of games, and they will be hoping to improve their home record, which currently stands at 20-14-4.

The Carolina Hurricanes have already secured their spot in the playoffs, and they come into this game sitting second overall in the Eastern Conference. Carolina has been one of the most consistent teams in the NHL this term, as they boast an overall record of 50-18-9.
Their recent form is also solid, as they have picked up six wins from their last ten games. Over that period, they have suffered just three defeats in regulation. On the road, they have gone 23-8-6, meaning only two sides in the East have been more productive on their travels this term.
Picks
This is a big game for the Predators, and they can’t afford to lose ground on the top eight. However, we find it extremely challenging to bet against the Hurricanes maintaining their charge with a 24th road victory of the season.
