Tough calls

#4 – Nashville Predators

Last Week: #2

Results last week: Win against Boston Bruins, Win at Dallas, Loss (OT) against Vegas

The Nashville Predators are one of the leagues best teams. They were even the top team in the Western Conference standings last week. While they won two games and earned five points, the Predators dropped. They performances were just okay. The power play is ugly right now, and they are obviously missing Ryan Johansen. Five days of rest comes at a good time.

#3 – Vegas Golden Knights

Last Week: #5

Results last week: Win (OT) against Anaheim, Win (OT) at Nashville, Win at Dallas

Vegas looks like a really good team. Malcolm Subban is playing better than anyone outside of the Subban family expected. You win three games, you deserve to move higher in the rankings. Now, you have five home games in a row against mixed competition. But all versus the East, whom you are 3-5-1 against. I am starting to believe in you a bit.
