Nashville at Minnesota

The Nashville Predators have come up empty in each of their last 5, and travel to Minnesota to try and right the ship. The Minnesota Wild haven't exactly been blistering the ice with dazzling play, as they have come out on the roght side of just 7 of their last 18. This is a pair of flawed teams having at it tonightThe Predators have pretty much had their way vs losing teams as they are 20-7 in their last 27 facing them, which includes a 9-3 mark facing a team with a losing home record. No rest for the weary, which usually means no wins for the Wild who are playing their 4th game in 6 nights, a situation that sees them at 9-23 in their last 32. I'll back Nashville in this one.
