NHL Predictions<\/h2>\n

Nashville Predators vs Florida Panthers<\/h3>\n

Time:<\/strong> 7 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST)<\/p>\n

TV:<\/strong> Scripps Florida; Fan Duel Sports South; ESPN+<\/p>\n

Our opening game of NHL predictions has the Nashville Predators<\/a> visiting the Florida Panthers<\/a>. Scott Wedgewood<\/a> is expected to get the start after the Predators tough loss to the Washington Capitals<\/a>. However, always check social media before locking in a daily fantasy starter. Filip Forsberg<\/a> leads the team in goals with six and is tied with Ryan O’Reilly<\/a> for the team-lead in points with 10.<\/p>\n

Florida is expected to counter with Sergei Bobrovsky<\/a> in goal for this game. The Panthers have son five straight games and are playing the part of Stanley Cup champions very well. Sam Reinhart<\/a> is off to a great start with 10 goals, 11 assists for 21 points to lead the Panthers. <\/span><\/p>\n

Nashville is struggling, but taking on a red-hot Florida team isn’t the answer.<\/p>\n

Prediction: Panthers win 5-2.<\/em><\/p>\n

Colorado Avalanche vs Winnipeg Jets<\/h3>\n

Time:<\/strong> 8 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST)<\/p>\n

TV:<\/strong> Altitude; TSN3; ESPN+<\/p>\n

We have a Stanley Cup Playoff rematch in this game between the Colorado Avalanche<\/a> and the Winnipeg Jets<\/a>. However, the two teams are going in opposite directions. Colorado has plenty of offensive firepower, but the team is still struggling. Alexandar Georgiev<\/a><\/span> has won a title, but has been scuffling to start the season. Nathan MacKinnon<\/a> is first in assists (19) and points (25) while Cale Makar<\/a> has 18 assists. <\/span><\/p>\n

Connor Hellebuyck<\/a> is the likely starter for the Jets, who are off to a 12-1 start. Winnipeg is first as a team in goals scored with 4.77 per game and 2.31 in goals allowed. Kyle Connor<\/a> is first in goals (9) and points (14) while Josh Morrissey<\/a> is tops in assists with 14.<\/span><\/p>\n

Colorado can keep up in it gets into a goal-fest. However, Winnipeg’s defensive system has been strong.<\/p>\n

Predictions: Jets win 4-2.<\/em><\/p>\n

Vancouver Canucks vs Los Angeles Kings<\/h3>\n

Time:<\/strong> 10:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST)<\/p>\n

TV:<\/strong> Fan Duel Sports West; SN Pacific; ESPN+<\/p>\n

Our final and featured game of NHL predictions has the Canucks visiting the Kings in a Pacific Division battle. Thatcher Demko<\/a> has been taking shots in his return from injury. However, Kevin Lankinen<\/a><\/span> has been outstanding and is the likely starter. Quinn Hughes<\/a> leads the club in assists (10) and points (12). However, Brock Boeser<\/a> is first in goals with six.<\/p>\n

Darcy Kuemper<\/a> is the projected starter in net for the Kings, who are off to a solid start. Alex Laferriere<\/a> is first in goals with eight while Anze Kopitar<\/a> is tops in goals with 15. Brandt Clarke<\/a> has recovered from a shaky start and is leading in assists with 11. <\/span><\/p>\n

This should be a good one, but the Canucks steal the road victory.<\/p>\n

Prediction: Canucks win 3-2.<\/em><\/p>\n

Prop Bets of the Night<\/h3>\n

We closed out NHL predictions with some prop bets. In the first game, we like Carter Verhaeghe<\/a><\/span> as a solid pick for anytime goalscorer at +170 on FanDuel<\/a>. For the final game of the night, go with Elias Pettersson<\/a><\/span> as a +240 goalscorer via FanDuel.<\/p>\n
