Prediction

Boy oh boy we are in for a treat tonight in the Canada Life Center in Winnipeg. It will be a playoff atmosphere between these two division rivals and should be a tight one all night long.

The Predators just will not go away, winning 3 of their last 5 games and 2 straight versus the Golden Knights and the Hurricanes.

— Nashville Predators (@PredsNHL) April 8, 2023

The Preds are 1 point behind the Jets, who are tied with the Calgary Flames at 89 points, with 4 games to go.

Every single point is paramount right now, and it really feels like the winner of this game tonight will take a major step towards securing that 2nd Wild card spot in the West.

Juuse Saros (31-22-7) is set to go in between the pipes for the Predators tonight, while Connor Hellebuyck (34-25-2) will get the start for the Jets in this must-win game.

The last 3 matchups between these two teams have gone under the total this season and rather than picking a side in this matchup, give me the under 5.5.

I expect a tight one tonight and both of these teams to do everything they can to get a gutsy win. For the value, give me the under.

Player Prop of the Game

Juuse Saros o29.5 Saves (-118) BetOnline

Let’s cap this off with Juuse Saros and his saves prop.

I love this line for Saros, who will have to be massive for the Predators tonight once again to give Nashville a hope of grabbing a big upset in Winnipeg.

Saros has 30+ saves in 5 straight games versus Winnipeg and given the ramifications of this game, I see a similar game script.

Saros also has 30+ saves in 4 of his last 6 games as well and will have to be massive once again for the Predators tonight.

Bonus: Saros 33+ Saves (+176)
