A win would mean a great deal for the Nashville Predators tonight. The two points would push them ahead of the Winnipeg Jets in the standings. It also ties them for the Central Division’s top spot with St. Louis, who is idle tonight. The win also gives the Predators a historic mark. The 11-2-1 record would be the team’s best month since January the 2011-12 season. Then, the team went 11-2-0.
But, the record for the month does not really matter. Simply winning on home ice does. So far, no team has fewer losses than the Predators lone defeat at home this year.
