Facing each other just two weeks ago in Nashville, the Predators and Vancouver Canucks will square off again tonight at Bridgestone Arena. Nashville, who’s been off since Thursday, is 27-14-4 and second in the Central Division; Vancouver, who beat Chicago 3-1 last night, is 20-19-6 and seventh in the Pacific Division.
The last time these two teams faced each other, the Canucks extended Nashville’s losing streak to four games, scoring three unanswered goals in front of a 31-save performance from Thatcher Demko.

While Nashville controlled five-on-five possession for the first and third periods, Vancouver capitalized on their momentum from the game-tying goal and let Demko do the rest.
