Jets vs Predators Prediction

I’m on the Jets here. I know it’s a case of two teams headed in different directions, and the Predators have actually managed to show some fight in some of their recent outings. However, this is still a team that’s won just five games on the road all season long, and I’m not going to back them just because of a couple of wins. The Winnipeg Jets are still one of the better teams in the NHL and are a much better team than what they’ve shown in the last few games. I think that Nashville is feeling themselves a little bit too much right now, and the Jets bring the Preds back down to earth in a hurry in this one. Give me Winnipeg here.
