Predators vs Stars Prediction

The Stars have been shaky defensively, and that gives the Predators a chance. This is also a weird early start time for a team on a central body clock. However, we’ve been fading the Predators a lot this season, and there’s no reason to stop now. The Preds have one win since October 26 and they’ve been getting blitzed defensively. The Stars already beat the Predators on the road a couple of weeks ago. Keep fading the Predators until they get their act together on the defensive side. Give me the Stars.
