Money Line: -152.00 Nashville (Away)
Result: Win
Look for Nashville to get the win on the road here tonight!
The Predators' goaltender Pekka Rinne is on fire to open the year and we think he'll once again be the difference in this contest. Rinne has stopped 56 of 57 shots in his team's 2-0 start, getting a ton of help from his defense which has killed off all eight power plays that he's faced.
New Jersey has opened 0-2 and hasn't won in regulation since March 20th, going 1-9-3 with one SO win in that span. Goaltender Corey Schneider is 0-7-2 with a 3.11 GAA and .898 save percentage during the stretch of futility (and note that in four career starts vs. the Predators he's posted a pedestrian 3.00 ERA).
