Nashville Predators vs Colorado Avalanche Prediction

You can make a case for the Nashville Predators and the plus money as they have won three of the last four games against the Avs, including a win against them last week. However, the Predators have not been good on the road and have struggled to close out games all season. The Colorado Avalanche have fallen short of expectations so far, but they're still a talented team that usually wins the games they deserve, and they're usually busier on home ice. I would need more bang for my buck to pull the trigger on the Predators. Give me the Avs at home.
