Canadiens vs Predators prediction
Canadiens vs Predators best bet: Canadiens moneyline (-120)
Given their four-game winning streak against the Nashville Predators, their active three-game winning streak, and their .647 points percentage on the road (sixth in the NHL), this matchup certainly favors the Montreal Canadiens.
They’re turning back to Jakub Dobes for a third consecutive start, making tonight his fifth start in their last six games. He’s conceded two goals or fewer in four straight.

Facing a Predators team that struggles to score (19th in goals per game), I love this matchup for Montreal.
Canadiens vs Predators same-game parlay
While there’s some serious chemistry afoot on the Habs’ top line, bettors cannot overlook Lane Hutson.
The sophomore defenseman has hit the Over for shots in three of his last four and eight of his last 11. Facing the 29th-ranked Preds in terms of shots allowed, this is a fantastic matchup for the Michigan native.
On the topic of standout Canadiens defensemen, Noah Dobson has been a shot-blocking machine recently. The NHL blocked-shots leader has hit the Over in five of his last six games, wearing more rubber than any other player during that time with 22 blocks.
