There are several stories about the Nashville Predators - Winnipeg Jets game tonight. Looking just at the headlines, you might be forgiven for thinking there are actually two games. The first game is life-or-death, played on a razor’s edge where every decision might spell destiny or disaster for each of the teams desperately vying for a chance at the Vegas Golden Knights in the Western Conference Final. You know, the kind of game that makes playoff hockey so exciting to watch, even if it isn’t your team’s fate on the line.
The other game is just a regular ol’ hockey game.
