Predators vs Oilers predictions
As the Nashville Predators gear up to face the Edmonton Oilers, all eyes are likely to be on Filip Forsberg. He’s been leading the charge with 8 goals this season, showcasing that knack for finding the back of the net when his team needs it most. Alongside him, Roman Josi has been a powerhouse in setting up plays, amassing an impressive 10 assists. Given their current form and crucial roles, these two could truly tilt the ice in Nashville’s favor, especially if their synergy clicks as it has in recent games.
Switching focus to the Edmonton Oilers, Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid have been nothing short of spectacular. Draisaitl, with his team-leading 12 goals and total of 20 points, is a force to reckon with. Meanwhile, McDavid’s role can’t be overstated, though his day-to-day injury status might add a layer of uncertainty. If he’s in the lineup, his playmaking ability, evidenced by his 12 assists, will be crucial. Their performance could be the deciding factor, especially if the Oilers aim to exploit the Predators’ less-than-stellar road record.
Considering both teams’ current trajectories and key player performances, the Oilers might just have the upper hand in this matchup. Their slightly better overall record and the advantage of playing at Rogers Place, where the crowd’s energy could act as the seventh man, gives them an edge. Assuming McDavid is healthy enough to play, his partnership with Draisaitl could be particularly lethal against the Predators’ defense. It's looking like a victory for Edmonton could be on the cards, continuing their quest to climb higher in the Pacific Division standings.
