Nashville Suffers Massive Loss
Early Tuesday, news came out that the Predators would be down one of their top-pairing defensemen NHL with 3.05 goals allowed per game this season. It’s not bad, but not good enough to shut down the better teams in the league.
The good news is, the schedule is just the 24th toughest with 16 games to play, but have two games remaining against the Winnipeg Jets. Fabbro had his best season with 12 points in 53 games and ranks third on the team with a +11 rating. The Predators are on a 10-0-2 run in their last 12 games.
Nashville is ranked 14th in our power rankings, within the Vegas Golden Knights who have two games in hand.
Hard To Know What You’re Getting With Winnipeg
It’s hard to know what bettors will be getting with the Jets down the stretch, so we have them at 10th in our latest power rating, fifth in the Western Conference. The question is, is this the team that loses to Seattle at home or the one that marches into Carolina as a +155 underdog and steals a 5-3 victory?
Over their last three games, we’ve seen them put up three goals at Seattle and then get shut out at Vancouver, followed by another three-goal effort in a home win against the Washington Capitals, on Monday. Over their last seven games, the Jest have cashed four straight over and then washed that down with three straight unders.
They will make the postseason but we still haven’t put our finger on their exact identity, making wagers difficult and uneasy from night to night.
The Public Will Be On The Under
We think the public will be on the under in this one once bettering trends take shape, and we think that’s the right side as well. The plus money on the under won’t last so be prepared to give up juice, like -120. The Vancouver while being held scoreless themselves (5-0).
Under bettor have been extremely successful this season with 34 unders in 56 decisions. The Preds have leaned to the under this season and have cashed unders in six of their last nine games with a push. To conclude our Predators vs Jets odds preview, our official selection is under 6. All the best with your NHL picks and parlays for Wednesday.
