Nashville Predators vs St Louis Blues Prediction & Picks, October 17, 2026

The Nashville Predators have struggled lately, winning only 3 of their last 10 games. Meanwhile, the St. Louis Blues are in much better form, having won 7 of their last 10. With both teams looking to tighten up their play, this matchup could see fewer goals than expected. At Bridgestone Arena, the Predators' goal-scoring might not be enough to keep up with the Blues. Our numbers suggest a combined total of about 6 goals, so betting on under 5.5 goals feels like a solid choice. The biggest risk is that both teams are close in skill, which could lead to an unexpected high-scoring night.
