The Nashville Predators are riding high on a wave of success, having secured points in their last 18 games and currently on a six-game winning streak. Their offensive prowess has been on full display, led by left winger Filip Forsberg, who has netted 40 goals this season. The Predators’ defense, anchored by captain Roman Josi, has been formidable, contributing to their solid standing in the Western Conference. As they prepare to take on the Coyotes, maintaining their defensive discipline and capitalizing on offensive opportunities will be key to extending their impressive run.
On the other side of the ice, the Arizona Coyotes have had a challenging season but have shown flashes of potential, including a morale-boosting win in their last outing. With standout performances from players like Clayton Keller, who leads the team with 30 goals, the Coyotes have the ability to surprise opponents. However, they’ll need to tighten up defensively, as they currently rank near the bottom of the league in goals against. The matchup against the Predators will be a test of their resilience and ability to execute under pressure.

The Nashville Predators are the clear favorites in this matchup, boasting a six-game winning streak and an impressive 18-game point streak. Their offensive firepower, led by Filip Forsberg, and defensive stability, anchored by Roman Josi, make them a formidable opponent for the struggling Arizona Coyotes.
