Plenty of games in the NHL tonight and we are back with some more predictions. Two picks tonight, check them out below:
Ottawa Senators @ Nashville Predators
The Senators head to Nashville tonight to take on the Predators who are playing the second of back to back games, but are happy to have starting goaltender Pekka Rinne back between the pipes. The Sens are moving Ryan Shannon up to the top line in the hopes of sparking some offense with some speed and energy. The Senators need to win this game to keep their playoff hopes alive. The Preds have been hot and the Sens have been cold. I’m looking for the Preds to be tired tonight after a 4-1 loss to the Blackhawks.
My Pick: Ottawa Senators +130 (Sportsbook.com)
Calgary Flames @ Dallas Stars
The Flames are coming off of two tough losses at the hands of the Minnesota Wild and they now have to face a much tougher opponent in the Dallas Stars. Dallas has surprised a lot of people this year and they will look to continue rolling against the lowly Flames. Dallas is (12-3-2) at home, while the Flames are (5-11-3) on the road. It’s Kipper vs Lehtonen in net and the Stars should be able to easily handle the Flames.
My Pick: Dallas Stars -160 (Sportsbook.com)
