LiontipsNashville vs Washington. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (February 16, 2022).
Command Analysis
Nashville recorded only one victory in their last four games. They beat Vancouver (4:2) thanks to the excellent performance of goalie Saros and forward Forsberg, who scored a double. The Preds also looked great against Edmonton, but lost in a shootout (2:3 SO). Games against Dallas and Winnipeg have not gone the Preds' way (3:4 and 2:5, respectively) - Nashville allowed the opponents too many scoring chances.
Washington are slumping and recently suffered defeats to the likes of Ottawa (1:4) and Columbus (4:5). Goalie Samsonov gave a subpar performance against the Senators, having stopped only 84% attempts on his goal. The Capitals dropped to the 7th line in the East following their recent results. Now they are seven points behind the conference leader.
