Predators vs Golden Knights Prediction

I’m on the Predators here. I think that Nashville at home has been a lot better than Nashville on the road, and I’m just not a fan of the Golden Knights in their current form, despite this being a team still fighting for the Pacific division title. Until Vegas shows me something offensively, I have to keep going the other way, so give me the Preds.
