The Predators have a perfect opportunity to climb into 1st place in the Central as they are just a point back from Winnipeg. The Jets are in action vs. the Sharks whereas Nashville has a very winnable contest vs. the Ducks.
Anaheim has the second fewest points in the Western Conference but they’ve actually been playing somewhat decent lately. The Ducks have rattled off wins in 3 of 5.
Nashville Predators
Nashville is just 3-3 over their last 6 but is still in the hunt in the Central. Tuesday isn’t necessarily a must-win because the Predators are almost assuredly playoff bound either way. Still a strong showing vs. an Anaheim team that looked horrible in their last outing would go a long way for the Preds.

Nashville is expected to have their #1 in net on Tuesday. Pekka Rinne has gone 5-2 in his last 7 starts and has allowed 2 goals or less three of those starts. The Ducks offense just netted 8 goals vs. Montreal on Friday so they’re not a total lost cause.
Anaheim Ducks
The Ducks offense was dominant in an 8-2 win over the Canadiens but they followed that up with a 2-3 loss to the last place Kings as -178 favorites. The Ducks also have wins over Arizona and Colorado in the past 10 days so they have shown the potential to hang with quality teams.

The Ducks defense has actually been playing pretty soundly recently. Anaheim has held 3 of the last 5 opponents to 2 goals or less. John Gibson is just 2-3 in his last five but he’s only allowed more than 2 goals once over that span. Can Anaheim provide any scoring support Tuesday?
NHL Betting Trends:

4* Free NHL Betting Pick: Under
There’s not much value in Nashville at -161 and Anaheim has no real incentive to win right now. Both goaltenders have played well lately and that should keep up in this one.
