Our opening game of NHL predictions has the Washington Capitals<\/a> hosting the Nashville Predators.<\/a> Juuse Saros<\/a> is expected to get the call for the game for the Predators, who were shutout in the last game against the Los Angeles Kings. Filip Forsberg<\/a> is first on the team in goals (6) and points (10) on the team.<\/p>\n

Washington is expected to go with Charlie Lindgren<\/a> in goal, but always check social media before locking in a fantasy goalie. Alex Ovechkin<\/a> has been heating up as he leads the team with seven goals. Dylan Strome<\/a> is first on the club in points with 17 this campaign.<\/p>\n
