The Habs are hot and have owned the Predators of late, so our NHL betting picks will take Montreal on the moneyline tonight.<\/p>\n

The Montreal Canadiens begin a five-game road trip as they visit the Nashville Predators on Saturday, March 28. They enter tonight having won four straight against Nashville, as both teams look to solidify playoff positioning.<\/p>\n

My Canadiens vs. Predators predictions and NHL picks<\/a> suggest the Habs will continue that trend as one of the league’s best teams on the road, led by some familiar faces on their blue line.<\/p>\n

Canadiens vs Predators prediction
\nCanadiens vs Predators best bet: Canadiens moneyline (-120)<\/p>\n

Given their four-game winning streak against the Nashville Predators<\/a>, their active three-game winning streak, and their .647 points percentage on the road (sixth in the NHL), this matchup certainly favors the Montreal Canadiens<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

They’re turning back to Jakub Dobes for a third consecutive start, making tonight his fifth start in their last six games. He’s conceded two goals or fewer in four straight.<\/p>\n

Facing a Predators team that struggles to score (19th in goals per game), I love this matchup for Montreal.<\/p>\n

While there’s some serious chemistry afoot on the Habs’ top line, bettors cannot overlook Lane Hutson<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The sophomore defenseman has hit the Over for shots in three of his last four and eight of his last 11. Facing the 29th-ranked Preds in terms of shots allowed, this is a fantastic matchup for the Michigan native.<\/p>\n

On the topic of standout Canadiens defensemen, Noah Dobson<\/a> has been a shot-blocking machine recently. The NHL blocked-shots leader has hit the Over in five of his last six games, wearing more rubber than any other player during that time with 22 blocks.<\/p>\n
