This time, it's Blues at Predators as St. Louis and Nashville square off again, after the two faced off in Missouri yesterday.
On Saturday afternoon, the Preds (28-22-7) earned their third win of the season over the Blues, as Kyle Turris collected three points. The potential playoff foes will meet today for a final time this season, with Nashville looking for a season sweep of the defending Stanley Cup Champions. Goaltender Juuse Saros made 23 saves in yesterday's victory, so Pekka Rinne could be between the pipes later today.
The Blues (32-16-10) have allowed three or more goals in 11 consecutive games and have lost four in a row.
