How to Watch, Live Stream Senators vs. Preds

A five-game homestand continues tonight for the Nashville Predators as they host the Ottawa Senators at Bridgestone Arena. This is the second and final contest between the two clubs this season; the Preds fell in overtime to the Senators in December.
The Predators are coming off a weekend that saw them collect three out of a possible four points, including a 4-3 shootout win on Saturday against Columbus. Nashville continues to battle for playoff positioning, and although they remain on the outside looking in, they continue to have games in hand on the competition.
"We've got to focus," Preds Head Coach John Hynes said Monday. "We had a good day [of practice yesterday]. We've got to focus in on Ottawa and then just take it day by day. Whether we're home or we're on the road, we want to make sure that our mental focus and our command level, the way we play the game is going to be at the right way, and that's going to give us a chance to win.

The Preds made one deal prior to Monday's NHL Trade Deadline by sending defenseman Matt Irwin and a 2022 sixth-round pick to Anaheim in exchange for defenseman Korbinian Holzer. Holzer is expected to be available to the Predators tonight against the Senators.
Forward Mikael Granlund missed Monday's practice and way given a maintenance day. Goaltender Pekka Rinne was also absent from the session due to illness. Hynes stated Granlund should be able to play tonight against the Senators.

Last Time Out:
Ryan Johansen, Mikael Granlund and Colton Sissons scored in regulation for the Predators before Grimaldi won it in the shootout. Filip Forsberg and Ryan Ellis also tallied in the shootout, and Juuse Saros made six stops in the penalty shot competition to earn the victory in net.
Roman Josi leads the Preds with 57 points, followed by Forsberg with 42 and Matt Duchene with 38. Forsberg has 18 goals, Nick Bonino and Craig Smith have 17 tallies apiece, and Granlund has 15 goals on the season.

The Opposition:
Ottawa dropped their third-straight game last night with a 4-3 overtime loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Senators were active during Monday's Trade Deadline sending players like J.G. Pageau, Tyler Ennis and Vladislav Namestnikov elsewhere.
Brady Tkachuk and Connor Bwon are tied for the team lead with 38 points apiece, followed by Anthony Duclair with 37. Duclair has 22 goals on the season, Tkachuk has 18 and Brown has 13 goals. Marcus Hogberg got the start last night for the Senators, so the Preds could face Craig Anderson in net this evening.
