Washington Capitals vs Nashville Predators Prediction 

Washington comes into this game with one of the best records in the NHL to start the season and they will be at home, where they are 6-1-0 on the season. Nashville is 1-1-1 on the road, but they have been extremely inconsistent in their first 12 games. The Predators are only scoring 2.42 goals per game this season, but they have been better on special teams than Washington has been. This game is a toss up in my opinion, but I will back the Capitals at home.
