Nashville is 15-1 the past two sesaons when they score 5+ goals. Phoenix is 1-32 over that span when allowing 5+ goals. So, will Nashville score 5? I think they have a great shot. In their last five games, they have scored 5 once and six twice. They are averaging 5 per game over that span. Phoenix allows 3.8 per game. So, it is possible. Even if the Predators don't score 5, they should win this game. Their defense is allowin gjust 2.4 per game over their last five and 2.5 per game on the road this season. They are 18-3 the past two seasons in the first half of the season vs. teams at 40% or worse.
