Nashville Predators vs Philadelphia Flyers Prediction
I’m on the Flyers here. I just am not up to laying this kind of price with a Nashville team that continues to be one of the more frustrating teams in the NHL to back on a nightly basis. The Flyers have been competitive in a lot of their recent games and I think they can battle the Predators here to keep this game close as well. Give me Philadelphia.
