Ryan O’Reilly leads with five points and three goals. Roman Josi has four assists, and Filip Forsberg and Erik Haula each have four points. Nashville snapped a three-game slide with a 2–1 win over Vancouver, playing well over the final period while holding a slim lead. Strong penalty killing and better transition from defense to offense are needed to beat Dallas.
Goaltending Matchup
Dallas: Jake Oettinger (3–2–1, 3.15 GAA, .894 SV%)
Nashville: Juuse Saros (3–2–2, 2.53 GAA, .911 SV%)
Saros holds the edge in both goals-against average and save percentage, thanks in part to a strong blue line in front of him. Oettinger has faced fewer shots but more high-danger ones as the Stars are not clearing the crease. The matchup favors Saros and the Predators.
Dallas Stars at Nashville Predators Prediction
Nashville’s penalty kill and home ice advantage will be two big differences in another close divisional game. Dallas has the stronger power play, but Saros’ current form in goals for Nashville will make it difficult for the Stars to score. Final Score Prediction: Nashville Predators win 3–2.
