Nashville has won nine of 10 games after defeating Buffalo 4-2 on Thursday as Filip Forsberg recorded a hat trick to back Juuse Saros, who stopped 26 shots for the Predators. Saros is 27-21-3 with a 2.83 goals-against average and a .907 save percentage and he is 7-0-1 his past eight starts. Saros has allowed more than two goals just once in that span. Columbus comes off a 4-2 win over Edmonton, but the Blue Jackets are 9-45 their past 54 games following a win and Nashville is 18-6 against the Metropolitan Division. Daniil Tarasov is expected in net for the Blue Jackets with a 6-8-2 record and he has lost six of his past 10 starts. Nashville has scored at least four goals nine of its past 10 games. Take the Predators as a Max Play.
