The Nashville Predators are coming off back-to-back post-regulation losses Wednesday/Thursday. They're however 7-1 in their last eight games playing on one days rest and 4-1 in their last five in the third game of a 3-in-4 situation, and I think they'll make light work of the Habs here at Bell Centre on Saturday.

Montreal took a 5-3 loss at Philadelphia Thursday night and is just 2-7 in its last nine vs. a team with a winning % above .600. I expect to see Pekka Rinne between the pipes for the Predators, and he owns a 7-2-2 mark with two shutouts, a 1.42 GAA and .949 SV% in 11 career encounters with the Habs.

I also think former Canadien, All-Star defenseman P.K. Subban, will have the Preds extra fired up here as he returns to the Bell Centre for the second time since being traded to Music City.

My selection is a 10* play on Nashville Predators ML.
