Cherry Picks Nashville
Don Cherry's NHL Pick for Thursday:
Edmonton Oilers vs. Nashville Predators – The Oilers have been playing well during the last two games and seemed to have turn the corner. The Predators are on a real roll with a three-game winning streak. They also have a better road record than a home record, which is unusual in the NHL. Right now Nashville is in a real dog fight with the St. Louis Blues and Minnesota Wild to keep a playoff spot. The Oilers have many games coming up versus the top teams in the Pacific Division but they need to make up some ground before February where they have a brutal schedule. I think this game will be a close one, but I’m picking the Preds with the +1.5 spread.
The Cherry Pick: Nashville Predators +1.5 goals at -236 (puckline)
