Game Preview: Nashville Predators @ Chicago Blackhawks 3/4/23
The Nashville Predators take on the Chicago Blackhawks tonight. Both teams sold some significant pieces before the deadlines, leaving tonight’s game a going-through-the-motions sort of affair that they will, inevitably, both get coached to win.
The Blackhawks actually strung five wins together in late February, but are back to struggling now. Their top two scorers have been traded. Jonathan Toews, who’s on IR, and Seth Jones, who is still with the team and active, were tied for third and are currently tied for the scoring lead, with 28 points. Taylor Raddhysh, now second in points, and Andreas Athanasiou are the goalscoring leaders with 14; Jones’s 21 assists lead the team.
