Nashville at Calgary

The Nashville Predators have spent a lot of time on the road to open the season, and stand at 2-2. They won their two-game season opening road set, and now have lost a pair on this trip which ends tonight. I expect them to bring a lot of energy to this one, and return home with a win. Calgary has had mixed results at home to start the season at 1-1-1, but they have been outscored in the three contests on home ice by a 9-7 count. Nashville has skated well as a road dog going back to last year as they have now won four of their last five in this situation. This has been a road-dominated series, with the visiting team collecting the 2 points in six of the last eight meetings. With Calgary not showing much of an advantage in home ice, I'm backing Nashville. Play on the Predators.
