The Nashville Predators have opened the season with back-to-back losses at Boston and Pittsburgh, but I think they'll record their fist W in their first home game of the season as they host the Philadelphia Flyers Tuesday night. Note that Nashville was 24-9-8 home at Bridgestone Arena last season while Philadelphia was just 14-22-5 on the road.

The Flyers have split their first two games of the season, on the road at LA and Anaheim. This will mark the finale of a three-game road trip before heading home to host the Capitals on Oct 14. Philly's focus might be on that game and I'm not sure how much they care about this non-conference game.

My free pick is on Nashville Predators.
