The best game on the Tuesday night NHL docket sees the Predators visit Vegas. Both teams have lost 2 games already on this young season, but also have records above .500 on the year.
The Golden Knights definitely have more momentum ahead of this game as they’ve rattled off two straight wins. Nashville on the other hand dropped a 4-7 decision to the Kings Saturday as -177 favorites.
Nashville Predators
Was Nashville guilty of looking ahead to this game at Staples Center over the weekend? After falling down 4-1, the Preds fought back to tie the game in the 3rd but gave up 3 Kings goals in the last minute for the 4-7 loss.
Saturday was the first time that Nashville had gone on the road all season. They started off very solid at Bridgestone Arean with a 3-1 record, but also fell 3-5 at home to Detroit as -270 favorites.
What Nashville has done this year is play great offense. The Preds have scored at least 4 goals in all but one of their games this season. The 4.6 goals per game that the Predators have averaged is tops in the league.
7 Predators skaters have multiple goals this season. Filip Forsberg leads the way with 4 in 5 games. C Matt Duchene has also been a huge part of the Nashville offensive success as he has 7 helpers on the year to go with 2 goals.

For as potent as their offense has been, Nashville has also had some pretty bad slip-ups on defense. They’ve allowed 5+ goals to Detroit, Washington and the Kings this year, two games of which were at home.
Juuse Saros was in net for both of Nashville’s losses this year. He’ll make way for Pekka Rinne in this important Western Conference matchup. Rinne is 3-0 but has a save percentage below .900 and gave up 5 scores on 26 shots in the win over Washington.
Vegas Golden Knights
Vegas has rebounded from a couple tough losses to score back-to-back wins over Calgary and Los Angeles. The Golden Knights were better than a -149 favorite in both of those contests however so they should have dominated.
There were two defeats that preceded the consecutive wins. One was a home loss to Boston as -135 favorites and the other was a 1-4 loss in Arizona at -120. Both of Tuesday’s combatants have shown a penchant to lose games they should win.
