The Nashville Predators are in the 4th playoff spot in the Central Division but hold a slim lead over the Dallas Stars. While Nashville did win against the Stars on Saturday, they failed to win in regulation and gave Dallas a point, extending their lead to three points instead of four.
While any lead in the playoff hunt is good, the Predators are in a situation where they have to win as much as possible, if not all, of their final four games of the season.
