Nashville Predators at Carolina Hurricanes, Game 1: Go Time

Tonight the Nashville Predators, #4 seed of the Central Division, begin the postseason with game one against the #1 seed Carolina Hurricanes. The Predators won the final two games of the regular season against Carolina, the latest contest occurring one week ago today. Prior to then, they lost all other six games to the Hurricanes, ending the season with the Hurricanes claiming the second-highest win percentage against the Predators, just behind the Tampa Bay Lightning.

However, while Carolina did not have much to play for, recent results should at least be good confidence builders for the Predators, who were one of the best teams in the NHL the second half of the season.
