Blackhawks vs Predators Prediction

This is an interesting game because we’ve been fading the Predators all year, but the Blackhawks are in a drought, and it’s Nashville that’s won 8 of the last 10 games. Still, I’m siding with the Blackhawks at home in this pick em price. The Predators are still terrible, especially on the road, where they’ve won just two games. Even without a win in 10 days, the Blackhawks have shown us far and away more this season, and if anything this is a spot where they can stop the bleeding. Give me the Blackhawks.
