Now 29 games into their 2025-26 campaign, the Nashville Predators are doing everything they can to stay out of dead last while simultaneously hanging around the wildcard bubble in a cluttered Western Conference.

The Predators are perhaps coming off their most impressive win of the season on Tuesday night by dismantling the historically great Colorado Avalanche by a 3-2 final score thanks to the shootout winner from Ryan O'Reilly.
