NHL Odds: Blues-Predators prediction, odds and pick

St. Louis Blues are looking to turn their fortunes around after losing their last two games. Nashville Predators are winless and have only scored one goal in their previous six periods of play.

The Nashville Predators haven't won since October 7th-8th in Prague. They are currently on a five-game losing streak.

The Blues are on a losing streak and need to play with more urgency. They could cover the spread if their offense improves and their goalkeeping is solid. Nashville's defense has been suspect at times this season and has conceded at least four goals per game in four of their seven games played. The Blues could capitalize on that. If the goalkeepers perform well, it will take the pressure off of the offense. It is the Blues' first loss of this year.

The Predators are looking to cover the spread against the Blues. Nashville finished the last season with the eighth-best record in the Western Conference. The team needs to change something up to save their season.

Predators are looking to win their first game in three weeks. They haven't played since last Saturday. Nashville won the last game against Philadelphia. The Predators have been off for more than five days. They will need to study more tape on St. Louis.

The Predators are the better team and will win the game in St. Louis. The Predators have been off for a week and have a lot of rest.
