The Nashville Predators have been on a pretty good roll over the last month or so, and that roll has them not only solidly in a playoff position, but also squarely in contention to unseat one of the league’s best in the Central Division.
A few weeks ago, it may have seemed unlikely that Nashville could crack into the Central’s top three, especially with the likes of Dallas, St. Louis and Chicago picking up points on a nightly basis and separating themselves in the West. However, the tables have turned lately for the Predators and entering Saturday, they are only two points back of the Blackhawks with an equal number of games played (74).
