Chicago Blackhawks - Nashville Predators

On April 22, Chicago will go against Nashville at their home arena in one of the NHL fixtures. Our experts have prepared a prediction for this event, which you can find below.

Command Analysis

Chicago Blackhawks

Chicago had an away streak, which they started with two victories over Columbus (4:3 and 4:3 OT). Goaltender Lankinen had two decent games overall. Then the Blackhawks had to go up against Detroit and they suffered a crushing defeat (1:4). This time the goalie was not so reliable. In the return match against the Red Wings, the team was able to take revenge with a score of 4:0.

But against Nashville the Blackhawks had experienced some serious issues, they had to concede (2:5). Again Lankinen was too hesitant, which resulted in him getting replaced in the third period after he failed to block another shot.

Nashville Predators

This is not to say that Nashville are in great form, but still, the team consistently earns points. In nine games, the Predators have only lost to Carolina (1:4 and 1:3) and Tampa (0:3). But in the return match against the Lightning, the Predators have humiliated their opponent with the most devastating defeat of the year - 7:2. The best player was the forward Arvidsson, who gave an assist and scored a double.

Thanks to a large number of points scored, the Predators moved up to fourth place in the Central Division standings with 51 points.

It is not worth expecting a barnburner in this fixture. The teams have been mostly playing defensive in their head-to-head matches. If Chicago can hold back the opponent’s pressure, then we will not see many goals.
