Nashville Predators at Chicago Blackhawks odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s Nashville Predators at Chicago Blackhawks odds and lines, with NHL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Nashville Predators (1-5-0) visit the Chicago Blackhawks (2-4-1) for a Friday night battle at the United Center. Puck drop in the Central Division matchup will be at 8:30 p.m. (ESPN+ / Hulu). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s NHL odds around the Predators vs. Blackhawks odds and make our expert NHL picks and predictions.

Season series: First meeting; Predators won 4-0-0 last season

Nashville snapped a season-opening 5-game losing streak with a 4-0 win over the Boston Bruins Tuesday. The Predator triumph, one bolstered by Nashville rifling 42 shots on goal and a strong performance between the pipes by G Juuse Saros, came in the finale of a 4-game homestand. Friday’s game at Chicago marks just the 2nd road tilt for the Preds.

The Blackhawks are closing out a 4-game homestand of their own. Chicago opened that stretch with a victory but has since lost 2 straight. That includes a 6-3 loss to the Vancouver Canucks in their last game (Tuesday).

Mrazek coughed up all 6 goals in Chicago’s Tuesday loss. That effort came on the heels of 3 solid starts; he had registered a .930 SV% over his 3 previous outings.

Predators at Blackhawks picks and predictions

Prediction

Predators 4, Blackhawks 3

Moneyline

Soros clocked a 2-start .939 SV% against Chicago last season, and he owns a career .933 SV% against the Blackhawks. And if he gets the nod for the Predators, he does not figure to face a lot of close-in shots. The ‘Hawks are among the worst teams in the league thus far when it comes to generating high-danger looks in 5-on-5 play.

The Preds may well be glad to be on the road after experiencing perhaps some bad puck luck in their string of earlier setbacks. Their puck-possession and shot-quality numbers certainly belie their early-season won-loss mark.

The Predators have won 4 in a row and 9 of their last 10 against the Blackhawks.

FanDuel Sportsbook offers a budget line here. TAKE NASHVILLE (-172).

Puck line/Against the spread

The pricing on the ML play is solid. PASS.

Over/Under

Nashville has scored 4-plus goals in 3 of its last 4 games against Chicago.

The Blackhawks defense was especially leaky the last 2 games. Both sides have some expected-goals numbers at both ends of the ice that would indicate slightly more scoring in the tank.

BACK THE OVER 6 (-110).

The Nashville Predators (18-10-1) visit the Chicago Blackhawks (11-15-2) Friday at United Center. Puck drop is slated for 8:30 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Predators vs. Blackhawks odds and lines and make our expert NHL picks, predictions and bets.

Nashville rolls into Chicago on a six-game win streak. Those half-dozen victories include four on the road and three or four monster puck-possession performances. The Predators have held foes to just 24.8 shots per game across the six-game span.

The Blackhawks have alternated wins and losses for their last 13 games. They are coming off a 5-4 overtime triumph over the Washington Capitals Wednesday. The Blackhawks are 5-2 over their last seven home games; that stretch began Nov. 7 with a 2-1 overtime victory against these Predators.

Predators at Blackhawks projected goalies

David Rittich (3-1-0, 3.10 GAA, .880 SV%) vs. Marc-Andre Fleury (9-10-0, 2.85 GAA, .913 SV%)

Rittich is coming off back-to-back wins, but he owns a mere .847 SV% over his last three starts. He’s posted a similar save percentage (.856) over four career outings versus Chicago.

Fleury allowed 4 goals to the Capitals Wednesday but was quite good in facing 46 shots. The winner of 501 career games is 4-1 over his last five starts.

Predators at Blackhawks odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Blackhawks 3, Predators 2

Money line

CHICAGO (-140) is a solid price on a club that is a little healthier than it was a month ago.  The ‘Hawks power play has been sharp of late (6-for-20, 30.0% in December), and so has its top netminder.

Nashville’s penalty kill (78.3%) ranks 24th in the league, and the Preds are in the box more than the average team. Back the Blackhawks.

Against the spread

PASS: this contest has a likable Under, and Chicago has tended to play a lot of close games of late.

Over/Under

The Under is 3-0-1 in Blackhawks’ last four games as a favorite and is 5-1 in the last six series meetings in Chicago.

Peg this total as being gettable on the low side, mostly due to the score-favoring factors and recent trends being slightly fade-worthy. Steer clear of a full-unit bet unless the tags here were to even out at -110. But consider a small play on the UNDER 5.5 (-122).

Analyzing Sunday’s Nashville Predators at Chicago Blackhawks odds and lines, with NHL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Nashville Predators (6-5-0) face the Chicago Blackhawks (1-9-2) Sunday at United Center. Puck drop is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Predators vs. Blackhawks odds and lines, and make our expert NHL picks, predictions and bets.

The Predators picked up a 3-2 win at the Vancouver Canucks Friday for a fifth win in the past six outings. Since Oct. 24, the Predators are outscoring the opposition just 19-14.

The Blackhawks came close against the then-unbeaten Carolina Hurricanes Wednesday before falling 4-3 at home. Chicago then hit the road and was waffled by the Winnipeg Jets 5-1.

Predators at Blackhawks projected goalies

Juuse Saros (5-4-0, 2.34 GAA, .923 SV%) vs. Marc-Andre Fleury (1-7-0, 4.11 GAA, .881 SV%)

Saros has won four consecutive starts, including Friday’s 3-2 win in Vancouver when he stopped 26 of 28 shots. He has allowed 2 or fewer goals in each of the four victories.

Fleury has had a disastrous start to his Chicago tenure, losing seven of his eight starts. He was pounded for 5 goals on 33 shots Friday in Winnipeg, and has allowed 4 or more goals in six of his eight starts.

Predators at Blackhawks odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Predators 3, Blackhawks 2

Money line

The PREDATORS (-110) are the play in this road outing as the Blackhawks have been a disaster through the first 12 games. Nashville is playing its fourth game in the past six days, and it’s 9-2 in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 situation. For what it’s worth, Chicago has won each of its past seven appearances on Sundays.

Against the spread

The Blackhawks +1.5 (-270) are super expensive if you’re looking for a little bit of insurance and don’t quite trust the Predators -1.5 (+190). Each of Nashville’s past three victories have been one-goal games. Expect more of the same here.

AVOID.

Over/Under

UNDER 5.5 (-102) is the way to go in this battle between Central Division rivals. The Under has cashed in four of the past five games for the Predators, while going 2-0-2 in the past four for the Blackhawks inside the division.

Plus, the Under is 7-2 in the past nine meetings in this series, including 4-1 in the past five meetings in Chitown.

Nashville Predators at Chicago Blackhawks odds, picks and prediction

Previewing Friday’s Nashville Predators at Chicago Blackhawks NHL odds and lines, with hockey picks, tips and predictions.

The Nashville Predators (25-21-2) play the grudge match of a three-game set against the Chicago Blackhawks (22-20-5) Friday at United Center. The puck will be dropped shortly after 8 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze the Predators-Blackhawks odds and lines, with NHL picks and predictions.

The Predators won Monday’s meeting in Nashville by a 5-2 count but took a 5-4 overtime loss Wednesday in Chicago. Nashville is 6-0-1 in the head-to-head season series, but two of its wins were decided beyond 60 minutes. This is the final meeting of the 2021 season.

Nashville remains fourth in the Central Division and has a tenuous hold on the division’s final playoff spot. Chicago is sixth and will be hard-pressed to qualify for the postseason with a very difficult remaining schedule.

Predators at Blackhawks: Projected starting goalies

Juuse Saros (16-9-1, .925 SV%, 2.32 GAA) vs. Malcolm Subban (6-5-1, .911 SV%, 2.86 GAA)

Saros went 9-1-0 with a .952 save percentage from March 23-April 13, but he has slumped of late with a 1-2-1 record and 13 total goals allowed in his last four games. He has struggled on the road with a 4-7-1 record, .908 SV% and 2.92 goals against average through 13 games as a visitor.

Subban stopped 36 of the 40 shots he faced Wednesday. It was just his second home win in four outings at United Center; he owns a .897 SV% and 3.65 GAA at home.

Predators at Blackhawks: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Predators 3, Blackhawks 1

Money line (ML)

The Preds are shorthanded on offense with LW Filip Forsberg (upper body) out of the lineup, but there’s still plenty of firepower to bounce back against the lower-seeded ‘Hawks.

Nashville registered 50.47% of the total shot attempts and 56.60% of the scoring chances at 5-on-5 Wednesday and deserved a better fate than the overtime loss.

Back the PREDATORS (-125) to close out the head-to-head season series.

Against the spread (ATS)

The PREDATORS -1.5 (+195) are a considerably more profitable play on the puck line, where they need to win by 2 or more goals.

They have the edge in the goaltending matchup and had beaten the Blackhawks by 2 or more goals in three of four games before Wednesday’s loss.

Over/Under (O/U)

Back the UNDER 5.5 (-105).

The last two games were the only ones in the season series to play to the Over, and the most recent was with an uncharacteristically poor outing from Saros.

Prediction

Predators 3, Blackhawks 1

Money line (ML)

Against the spread (ATS)

As mentioned above, the PREDATORS -1.5 (+195) are a tempting play, even on the road.

They covered the puck line Monday at home, and they won by 2 or more goals in three of their past four meetings with the Blackhawks.

Over/Under (O/U)

The UNDER 5.5 (-110) is the lean here as it has dominated for the Predators lately. The Under is 4-1-1 in Nashville’s past six on the road, and 3-0-2 in the past five overall for the Preds.

The Under has also hit in five of the past six for Chicago while going 4-1-1 in its past six games against teams with a winning record.

Pekka Rinne (8-11-1, .899 SV%, 3.07 GAA) vs. Malcolm Subban (4-4-1, .903 SV%, 3.14 GAA)

Rinne is making his seventh straight start away from home. The first six games in that string amounted to a mixed bag. However, stopping 38 of 39 shots against Tampa Bay two starts back made for one of the veteran’s better turns of the year.

Subban is expected to make his first start in eight days. In just four games since Feb. 27, the Chicago backup has logged an .871 SV%.

Predators at Blackhawks: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Nashville 3, Chicago 2

Money line (ML)

The Preds and ‘Hawks wrap up a key two-game set in Chicago. Nashville is on a roll of late (6-1-0 last seven games) and is now just two points behind the Blackhawks for the fourth and final playoff slot in the Central.

A Chicago squad loaded with rookies may be hitting a wall in this compressed-schedule year. The ‘Hawks are 3-7-0 over their last 10 games; they’ve allowed a difficult-to-overcome 35.5 shots per game since Feb. 28.

The Predators own a Corsi-for of 54.6% over their last three games. They had a stranglehold on Saturday’s game (a 3-1 Nashville win) from start to finish. The Preds had a good plan for keeping the Blackhawks out of the slot, and Chicago struggled with some long possessions in its own zone.

BACK NASHVILLE +100.

Play our new free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Against the spread (ATS)

The puck line gets pricey on the lean-side (Nashville) here. PASS.

Over/Under (O/U)

Nashville and Chicago have played three low-scoring games in as many meetings this season. Subban has a solid history in posting nice starts off a long layoff. In their 6-1-0 stretch, the surging Preds have allowed more than two goals just once.

TAKE THE UNDER 6 (-120).
