Thursday NHL Pick

The Nashville Predators will put their perfect 4-0 road record on the line tonight when they head to New Jersey to take on the Devils. New Jersey is 4th in the Metropolitan Division at 4-2-0-0 and have been a force at Prudential Center, with a record of 4-1-0-0, but have struggled against the Central Division, going 2-6 in their last 8 overall. On the flip side, Nashville sits atop of the Central Division at 7-2-0-0 and are 5-0 in their last 5 against the Metropolitan Division. The Devils are riddled with injuries, with defensemen Steven Santini, Ben Lovejoy, and right winger Drew Stafford all on the IR, and they could also be without center Travis Zajac for tonight’s match-up, who is battling a lower body injury. The Predators are 22-7 in their last 29 road games and the road team is 6-0 in the last 6 match-ups between these two clubs.
