The Predators head to the Shark Tank to rekindle their winning ways from earlier this season, while San Jose is still trying to get their season on track.
Still number two in the central division Nashville is definitely a contender this season, but some of the shine is coming off of their sparkling start to the season.

Nashville Predators
The Predators seem to have lost their mojo, having lost three of their last four games. This includes a a 9-4 loss to the Colorado Avalanche on Thursday.
What’s even worse, is that 9-4 loss happened with the Predators ahead 3-2 midway through the second period, they then surrendered six unanswered goals. When you’re a team that’s built around defence you know something is seriously wrong.
Not to mention, this was a Colorado team who has two of their highest scoring forwards out on injured reserve.

San Jose Sharks
San Jose began the season with just four games in the win column in 15 games. Now they’ve won two consecutive home games. The latest on Thursday night, when their offence came alive for 6-5 victory over the Minnesota Wild.
What’s telling about that game though, is they were ahead 4-0 in the first period, and only just pulled off a nail biter in the third.
The Sharks’ net minder, Martin Jones, was never expected to be a top tier goalie, but giving up five goals against the Wild make him potentially a liability. The Sharks may even start back-up Aaron Dell.
Free Nashville Predators vs. San Jose Sharks NHL Prediction:
The Predators should have the clear advantage in goal scoring here, but after Thursday’s game no one can make that claim. On paper Pekka Rinne is solid, but in reality he allowed a franchise high of goals against.
When a goalie suffers a loss like that his confidence doesn’t exactly soar in anticipation of the next game.
The Sharks have as much, if not more so, offensive firepower at their disposal, with centre Thomas Hertl and left-winger Evander Kane.
NHL Free Prediction: San Jose 4 – Nashville 3
This is a tough pick, as with questionable goaltending on both sides anything is possible. Nashville is clearly the better team this season, but San Jose would dearly love to make it three wins at home.
If the Sharks forwards can rattle Rinne early, then look out, the Predators could be facing another blowout. Overall you have to like the price on the Sharks, and the over, as this game looks to be a barn burner.
