Nashville

Nashville is finally starting to show some great hockey. 'The Predators, with a great lineup, might not make the playoffs. They are currently at the bottom of the Western stansings with 39 points. The team is currently in 14th position, and it will require a miracle to save them. Andrew Brunette's team has never managed more than three wins in a season. But now, they have a chance to win three games in a row, which would be a big achievement.

San Jose

However, it's too early to write off Nashville, as they have a strong squad. It's a long way to the wild card, but the roster can still affect them, and they fight to their last breath sometimes. San Jose's situation is quite serious. At the moment, the Sharks are last in the Western Conference standings with 34 points, and they have already given up. The visitors have lost six of their last seven games. In the previous game, San Jose flew into Boston (3-6).

Their opponent, San Jose, is not doing well and have failed a lot of games recently. The Predators are on a high after three home victories in a row and will be looking to please the fans to improve their modest record this season.
