The Preds will look to not turn three consecutive early leads into three consecutive overtime losses tonight in Minnesota — hopefully by turning a lead into a win instead.
The Nashville Predators
It’s been a rough year for the Preds. Despite adding several high-profile goalscorers this offseason, and having several talented offensive players already on the roster, they haven’t been able to turn those ingredients into a finished product.
They just can’t score goals — their 56 total are tied for last in the league with the Anaheim Ducks, who’ve played two fewer games, and they’re just above dead last in the league in the standings, with only the Chicago Blackhawks (who’ve also played fewer games) below them.
