The Nashville Predators are enjoying their longest win streak of the season, one to which their top defenseman has finally contributed.
They'll vie for a sixth straight victory Thursday night as they host a New Jersey Devils team that's lost six of seven and is struggling to score.
Nashville (32-21-11) won 5-3 over Dallas on Tuesday, as Shea Weber returned with a goal and two assists after missing three games with a lower-body injury. Weber, who had gone pointless in four straight, scored his team-best 12th power-play goal.
"The way the guys were playing while I was out, I was a little nervous to come back," Weber said.
