Whenever you can get Connor McDavid and his Edmonton Oilers as a dog, you have to consider them, and they will be one tonight when they visit Bridgestone Arena to face the Nashville Predators. The Oilers enter tonight’s game with a road record of 18-13-3 and have faced the Preds twice this year, winning both meetings. Edmonton’s Leon Draisaitl, who leads the league in points, has been a Predator killer, notching 4 tallies in the first two contests. Nashville has won 3 of their last 4 games and are fighting for a playoff spot so this will not be a walk in the park for Edmonton but with Mike Smith expected between the pipes for the Oilers , who is 11-1-4 in his last 16 starts, they get it done.
TONIGHT’S PICK: EDMONTON OILERS
